Inviting applications for a JRF/PhD position in an ISRO funded project

Inviting applications for a JRF/PhD position in Multi-sensor data fusion and Orbit determination with nonlinear estimation for space debris RADAR. This position is sponsored by ISRO Respond Program. Due to increased human activity in the last two decades, near-earth space is becoming congested from functional/non-functional satellites and space debris. These space objects of human origin and natural asteroids, and space weather possess natural, accidental, or intentional threats to the functional and expensive satellites.

The successful candidate will work on a project funded by the ISRO Respond program and participate in developing advanced multisensory data fusion and estimation algorithms to track space debris. This position provides the selected candidate with a unique opportunity to contribute towards India’s self-reliance in risk assessment for space assets by providing operationally flexible, scalable, transparent and indigenous space situational awareness solutions.

Essential Qualifications:

  1. Bachelor or master’s degree in CSE, ECE, Aerospace Engineering or related field with CGPA >= 7.5
  2. CSIR-UGC Net (Assistant Professorship)/ GATE qualified
  3. Knowledge about linear algebra, vector calculus, State Space Methods, Modern Control Theory
  4. Proficient in Linux, MATLAB, and Python
  5. Good interpersonal and communication skills (both oral andwritten)
  6. Maximum age limit – 35 years
  7. Application deadline: April 15, 2024
