🔬 Seeking Passionate Undergraduate Researchers! Join our Exciting NSF REU Project!
We are thrilled to announce an incredible opportunity to be part of our National Science Foundation (NSF) Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) project.
🌟 Project Overview:
Our NSF-funded REU project aims to train students in deep research using software defined radios, network simulation and testbeds. As a participant, you will collaborate with graduate students and faculty researchers to delve into LTE base location determination technology. This immersive and hands-on experience will allow you to broaden your horizons, develop essential research skills for graduate school, and contribute to advancements in location security and privacy in cellular networks. You will receive a stipend throughout the duration of the research experience.
🔍 Research Focus:
Under the guidance of faculty mentors mentors, you will work on software development and conducting experiments to collect data related to the positioning protocol proposed for LTE. You will analyze the data to establish feasibility of security the location determined by the mobile phone and the LTE base station. You will have this unique opportunity to explore your passion within a supportive and stimulating environment.
