This is a call for expressions of interest. The formal selection process will be carried out by a selection committee at the University of Bologna.
Open PhD Position
Integrated 6G Localization, Sensing, Communications and Control
Program: PhD in Electrical, Electronic, and Information Engineering (ETIT), University of Bologna (UNIBO, Italy), https://phd.unibo.it/etit/en
Supervisors: Prof. Anna Guerra, Dr. Francesco Guidi
Project Context: The selected candidate will join the ERC Starting Grant project “CUE GO – Contextual Radio Cues for Enhancing Decision-Making in Networks of Autonomous Agents”, which aims to develop a new methodological framework to improve decision-making in autonomous systems. The project combines high-frequency radio sensing and localization, semantic environmental mapping, and intelligent agent coordination. The goal is to enable autonomous agents to extract contextual radio features/cues from electromagnetic representations of their environment. These features carry semantic meaning relevant to the agents’ mission and can accelerate decision-making, enhance ambient awareness, and enable prediction of action outcomes.
Expected Work: The selected candidate will conduct research at the intersection of wireless communications, signal processing, and control theory, aiming to develop cutting-edge algorithms for joint localization, communication, and control. The work will account for the deployment of emerging technologies, including extremely large antenna arrays and leaky-wave antennas, on mobile autonomous agents.
Possible activities will include:
Working Environment: The PhD will be conducted at the University of Bologna (Bologna, Italy) in collaboration with the National Reserach Council of Italy (CNR-IEIIT, Bologna, Italy).
Candidate Profile: We are looking for motivated candidates with the following background:
Salary: Standard Italian PhD scholarship.
Application Window: May 30 – June 30, 2026
