Internship | Exploiting attention to streamline the training of deep neural networks applied to radar data

What will be your role? Nowadays, deep learning techniques are used in a wide variety of domains, including the radar domain. In the radar domain, deep learning is primarily applied for classification based on some 2D representation of the radar data, e.g., an Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) image or a spectrogram (i.e., an image of signal...

What will be your role? Deep learning techniques typically thrive when large sets of labelled data are available. In the radar domain, labelled data tend to be scarce depending on the application area. So it would be beneficial if all available data could be used. However, in practice measurements may be made with varying radar waveform settings (such...

What will be your role? Radar observations are hampered by reflections from the background surrounding an object of interest (so-called radar clutter) and sometimes interference of other emitters. Radar clutter may exhibit some temporal structure, e.g., radar reflections from rolling sea waves or from the rotating blades of a wind turbine. Also...

What will be your role? The waveform design is one of the critical aspects in radar performance optimisation. Traditionally chirped waveforms are applied in radar, designed for signal-to-noise ratio optimisation when applying a matched filter for detection. This is however only one criterion that can be used for waveform design. Currently there is a...

About this position Currently, wireless communication and radar sensing are two separate worlds. This is partly because radar mainly works at high frequencies (such as mmWave radar at 77 GHz) due to the required resolution and wireless communication currently only takes place below 6 GHz. In 6G, the differences in frequency will disappear, meaning...

About this position In conventional training of machine learning models, data is stored in one location. More data often means better performance, thus if multiple parties want to contribute to the training, they have to share their data. Nevertheless, when data is sensitive, data sharing is often not possible or allowed. Federated Learning (FL) is a...

The ultimate objective of tno's programmable networking research is to create a self-optimizing network service infrastructure, based on open networking and cloud technology. In this research project we make a step by investigating the state-of-the-art of programmable network telemetry and its application to monitor and optimize end-to-end performance of...

About this position Frequency selectivity is crucial for radar system. Spurious frequencies of the higher order harmonics generated in the chain of a front-end radar system can interfere or even damage other systems located in the vicinity. Frequency filtering operations are usually implemented along the RF chain of a transmitter (TX) by electronic...
