Internship - Machine-Learning Based Uplink Power Control

Come create the technology that helps the world act together

Nokia is committed to innovation and technology leadership across mobile, fixed and cloud networks. Your career here will have a positive impact on people’s lives and will help us build the capabilities needed for a more productive, sustainable, and inclusive world.

We challenge ourselves to create an inclusive way of working where we are open to new ideas, empowered to take risks and fearless to bring our authentic selves to work.

In the 2030s, 6G radio networks will revolutionize our lives by enabling communication and sensing, as well as extreme connectivity at a fraction of today's costs thanks to the use of Artificial Intelligence techniques. At the same time, there is a clear need for 6G to reduce the carbon footprint through better energy efficiency.

The team you'll be part of

Nokia Bell Labs is the world-renowned research arm of Nokia, having invented many of the foundational technologies that underpin information and communications networks and all digital devices and systems. This research has produced nine Nobel Prizes, five Turing Awards and numerous other awards.

Nokia Bell Labs is exploring radical new ideas to address the challenges that 6G networks will be confronted with, including the demand for extreme connectivity and capacity, as well as massive energy efficiency. In our HW and AI labs near Paris, Bell-Labs interns will have the opportunity of working side-by-side with industry-leading researchers, who will advise and challenge them. Furthermore, our interns will be integrated in a small and familiar research department, where they will be exposed to research topics beyond their own. This provides an excellent environment to foster cross-domain thinking and collaborations between department members.

What you will learn and contribute to

The biggest challenge for next-gen communication systems in the upcoming decade is to support a dramatic increase of data consumption while also meeting the energy consumption targets through and intelligent usage of the networks.  This internship focuses on exploring machine-learning based techniques to improve the energy efficiency of wireless communication networks through intelligent uplink power control. 

Are you passionate about solving problems?
As part of our team, you will:

• Formulate optimization problems in 6G wireless networks.
• Propose novel solutions to these problems.
• Validate ideas through simulations.
• Compare the results with the state-of-the-art.

Your skills and experience

You have:

• enrolled in the last year of a master's program or are in the advanced stages of a PhD program in telecommunications, signal processing, or any related discipline. 
• Strong background in wireless communications and/or signal processing.
• Knowledge of machine-learning techniques.
