    Call for PhD! We have an opening PhD position in cooperation with EvoLogics. Our research group is searching for a PhD candidate who will work with us and EvoLogics. The present PhD research project targets the design, improvement and experimentation of a secure underwater acoustic networking, localization and tracking scheme. This objective represents a significant novelty in the panorama of underwater acoustic networks, as no protocol exists to date that incorporates layer-2, -3 as well as physical layer techniques. Preliminary work adds security elements to networking from terrestrial radio network security concepts, and some contributions in the literature target physical layer security for underwater communications. However, the problem of coalescing all these techniques into a practical and realistic underwater networking, localization, and tracking scheme has never been tackled so far. The candidate is expected to hold a master’s degree in telecommunications or equivalent and should have knowledge of signal processing, localization schemes, and network simulation. The position is supported by a scholarship partially funded by the governmentr’s PNRR and partially by EvoLogics. The duration is 3 years. Candidates who want to apply should follow the instructions at the following link https://www.unitn.it/ateneo/110100/pnrr-dm117-2023 The online application portal opens on June 20, 2023.
