IMDEA Networks Institute

About the Project  

IMDEA Networks' Pervasive Wireless System Group (http://persys.networks.imdea.org) headed by Prof. Domenico Giustiniano (http://people.networks.imdea.org/~domenico_giustiniano/) invites applications for a postdoc position in the area of LiFi technology for Internet of Small Things. As IoT devices are getting miniaturized, new challenges must be addressed to communicate, compute and sense. As a member of the team, the researcher will investigate LiFi for miniaturized IoT devices, and work in a new EU project that has been just accepted, performing experimental work with close interaction with the PhD students of the group.
