Organisation
The French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) is a key player in research, development and innovation in four main areas :
• defence and security,
• nuclear energy (fission and fusion),
• technological research for industry,
• fundamental research in the physical sciences and life sciences.
Drawing on its widely acknowledged expertise, and thanks to its 16000 technicians, engineers, researchers and staff, the CEA actively participates in collaborative projects with a large number of academic and industrial partners.
The CEA is established in ten centers spread throughout France

Job description
The wireless system department of CEA-Leti is studying new of communication systems between vehicles and between vehicles and road infrastructures and their future evolutions. These systems are bound to take an important part in the management of connected and autonomous vehicles.
To strengthen its research teams, the laboratory is looking for a researcher. The following tasks are envisaged:
• Study the communication standards used for vehicular applications (V2X) - C-V2X and their evolutions, 5G V2N, IEEE 802.11p
• Study and propose new concepts of protocols
• Study and implement new simulation modules containing V2X protocol layers using a system simulator (type NS3)
• Evaluate performance gains using the proposed concept simulator
• Investigate how occupancy maps are generated by vehicle sensors and propose fusion approaches in this context
• Propose and evaluate methods for optimizing V2X connectivity for high-level applications such as detection and protection of vulnerable road users (pedestrian, cyclists)
The work will be carried out in the context of an EU funded project with leading industrial and academic partners of the automotive domain.
Applicant Profile
- Engineer or doctor, you have a first experience in the following fields:
- Digital Communications and Digital signal processing
- Communication protocols and their architecture (ideally IEEE 802.11x, ITS-G5, 5G systems)
- Network simulation tools (ideally NS3)
