Research Fellow/Scientist

Job Req ID:  1796
Employee Category:  Research
Department:  EPD Pillar

Research Scientist for Research on Wireless Power Transfer

 

The hired Research Scientist will work on the research of wireless power transfer (WPT) in the Biomedical EM Lab at Singapore University of Technology and Design (http://people.sutd.edu.sg/~huangshaoying/). The contract is 1 year (renewable) for research assistants.

 

Project Description

The project is to investigate the electromagnetic mechanisms for a compact, efficient, and wideband antenna/radiator suitable for wireless energy harvesting (WEH)/WPT. This exploration will span both conductive and magnetoelectric (ME) antennas. Our study will consider WIFI, power from base stations, and WPT as potential power sources.

 

Job Scopes:

  • Literature review of the research domain
  • Investigations on the electromagnetic mechanisms for a compact, efficient, and wideband antenna/radiator suitable for WEH/WPT
  • Designs of small antennas/radiators for WEH/WPT
  • Antenna/radiator fabrications and testing
  • Paper writing and documentations

 

Your profile

 

We are looking for a researcher with the following expertise and skills,

  • A PhD in electrical engineering, physics, or related field
  • Knowledge on EM theories microwave engineering, especially antenna theories and transmission line theories
  • A background on EM modeling and simulation software (e.g., CST)
  • Research or design experience on WEH/WPT and/or antenna designs
  • Testing and characterization of RF/microwave devices or components
  • Python/Matlab coding
  • Good track record of the capacity to drive first author publications
  • Good communication skills and interpersonal skills
  • A good team player
