Doctoral Network on Spectrum Analytics as a Service

Project description

Training specialists in large-scale spectrum analytics

As 6G advances into new frequency bands, integrates terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks and enables ambient Internet of Things, the ability to perform sustainable large-scale spectrum measurements and AI-empowered analyses in five dimensions is becoming a highly sought-after skill. Unfortunately, there are not nearly enough specialists and experts to satisfy this growing need. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the SpecX project will develop a high-level research programme, equipping doctoral candidates with crucial skills and knowledge on spectrum measurements, analyses and applications. This will allow them to achieve key breakthroughs across many sectors, fields and services. The project will combine local and network-wide training, followed by hands-on training in coordination with non-academic partners.

Objective

The overall research goal of SpecX is to provide a high-level research programme and doctoral training to 15 Doctoral Candidates (DCs) in large-scale spectrum measurements, analyses, and applications in future telecom infrastructure. The goal is to create a research and innovation workforce with transferable and sustainable skills in applied mathematics, radio hardware, cellular infrastructure, edge computing, spectrum data collection, artificial intelligence, spectrum management methods, and business aspects to assess and analyse big spectrum data and provide innovative services. This goal will be achieved by a unique combination of local and networkwide research training designed to provide the DCs with the needed fundamental elements to conduct the research programme for measuring real spectrum data, analysing it, developing innovative methods, and inventing new valuable applications. Hands-on in-depth training will be strengthened with non-academic placements, as well as multidisciplinary, intersectoral, and international cooperation, to maximise the employability of DCs and the project’s impact in the short- and long-term.
