The goal of this project is to understand the physical link between solar storms and telecommunication dropouts in Ireland, and will involve collaboration between the Schools of Physics, Computing and Engineering. The team will build a solar radio burst monitor, correlate the onset of solar storms to periods of telecommunication problems, and create a real-time system to predict these events in the future.
The research student will have acquired an undergraduate degree in physics, with experience in computing and electronics. The project will be hosted in the School of Physics, with input from the Schools of Engineering and Computer Science, and ETH Zurich.
The student will partake in several taught modules in each School, and will play an active role in the TCD Innovation Academy. Through this PhD, the student will obtain skills relevant to the space and telecommunications industries, and experience in commercialisation.
