About the SnT
The University of Luxembourg is an international research university with a distinctly multilingual and interdisciplinary character.
The Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT) at the University of Luxembourg is a leading international research and innovation centre in secure, reliable and trustworthy ICT systems and services.
We play an instrumental role in Europe by fueling innovation through research partnerships with industry, boosting R&D investments leading to economic growth, and attracting highly qualified talent. We look for researchers from diverse academic backgrounds to contribute to our projects in areas such as: Network Security, Information Assurance, Model-driven Security, Cloud Computing, Cryptography, Satellite Systems, Vehicular Networks, and ICT Services & Applications.
The SPARC group in SnT is pursuing research on the signal processing applications in radar and communications systems in partnership with national and international academic and industrial collaborators. Updated information about the recent activities of SPARC can be found here: www.radarmimo.com/
The group has been working on mmWave radar sensors in different applications, including automotive, indoor sensing, in-cabin monitoring, occupancy sensing, drones, multi-copters, gesture recognition, smart buildings, smart street lighting, smart factories, healthcare, and robotics. The emerging radar sensors that are in use by the group, are using multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology and can be connected to build a distributed and co-operative network. To develop the signal processing techniques, the group researchers are using real data captured by the available radar modules at the lab, or the custom-built MIMO radar with flexibility of changing the transmit waveform and signal processing units on the fly.
Personnel at SPARC have been involved in several seminal papers, book chapters and books in the field of waveform optimization, vital signs monitoring, joint radar and communications, sparse arrays, interference modelling, 4D imaging radars, distributed sensing, and tracking. SPARC has also collaborated with long term industry partner IEE S.A (www.iee.lu), University of Naples Federico II, US Airforce Laboratories, TU Berlin, and TU Munich, among others. Personnel at SPARC have also been involved in European Research Council (ERC) Advanced Grant and in ERC Proof-of-Concept activities. Recently, an alumnus of the group received the Excellent Thesis Award from the University of Luxembourg.
