Summary
This is a fantastic opportunity to gain exposure to new cellular communication standards such as 5G, allowing you to understand how these new communication standards are derived and how these translate in the design and implementation of the devices used by consumers to exchange information over these wireless links.
Job Description Would you like an opportunity to work with advanced cellular communication systems?
We have an excellent opportunity for a talented student who is interested to learn more about the design, modeling and verification of advanced cellular communication systems.
As MediaTek’s successful placement student, you will work as part of a small (but outstanding) R&D team that is responsible for driving innovation in advanced cellular communication systems, starting from the definition of new communication systems standards up to the design and verification of modem chipsets implementing this new cellular protocols.
This is a fantastic opportunity to gain exposure to new cellular communication standards such as 5G, allowing you to understand how these new communication standards are derived and how these translate in the design and implementation of the devices used by consumers to exchange information over these wireless links. Using a combination of theoretical analysis and software simulations, you will be involved in the modeling of their performance at the system level as well as at the user device level. This is also a great opportunity to develop your programming/scripting proficiency and apply these skills to the development of complex simulation environments.
