Working Student (f/m/d) Industrial Wired/Wireless Communications Lab - #2755437

The System Innovation team focuses on cutting-edge innovation projects, both national and international, with partners from industry and academia. These projects have a significant impact, from NXP’s products portfolio to standardization. The Industrial Communication Lab scope is TSN-based communication, both Wireless and Wired, and it is active in several international standardization organizations (5G-ACIA, IEEE, OPC Foundation, etc.).

The results of our projects are showcased as industrial white papers, research papers and system demonstrators that combine the latest security and communication technology. A demonstrator typically consists of NXPs embedded microcontrollers/microprocessors that are combined with NXPs Security ICs, wired/wireless communication links and a PC/Smartphone-based GUI application to deliver messages sent from the demonstrator.

The team is now looking for a working student (f/m/d) to support our research work in industrial communication for industrial automation and robotics. Extension of contract or conversion into thesis topics later is possible.
