Phd Position in Microwave Remote Sensing

vor 2 Monaten


Bern, Schweiz Universität Bern Universität Bern Vollzeit

**PhD Position in Microwave Remote Sensing**
**100%**:
The microwave physics group develops and operates passive millimeter-wave radiometers for atmospheric research and climate studies. This includes a suite of ground-based instruments for profiling of ozone, water vapor, wind speeds and temperatures in the middle atmosphere, which are deployed in Switzerland or on a campaign base at remote bservatories. The group also has extensive expertise in the optical design and calibration of spaceborne microwave radiometers for Earth observation and planetary sciences. Our most recent projects include the Sub-millimeter Wave Instrument SWI, which was launched in April 2023 on the Jupiter mission JUICE, and the Arctic Weather Satellite AWS which is scheduled for launch in 2024.

Tasks

Your initial task will be to support the overall optical design and the development of the
calibration system for a microwave sounding satellite in collaboration with experienced

skills to the design of a ground-based ozone profiling instrument. You will be also responsible for the data analysis of our existing ozone radiometers which are currently operated in Switzerland and in the Arctic.

**Requirements**:
You have a MSc degree in physics or electrical engineering. Background knowledge in high frequency antenna simulations is expected, preferably using GRASP and HFSS. Further experience in atmospheric remote sensing or radio astronomy will be an advantage, as well as hands on experience with RF measurements (VNA, spectrum analyzers, etc.). A high level of written and spoken English is required. You enjoy working in an interdisciplinary and multinational research environment.

We offer

The position is available immediately with a maximum duration of 4 years. University of Bern is committed to diversity and gender equality, promotes healthy work-life balance and safe working environments. It offers attractive working conditions with a salary according to the regulations of the Swiss National Science Foundation.
