What you'll do

  • Benchmark synthetic and measured datasets and reproduce the conventional methods (wavelet denoising, drift removal, deconvolution, slanted edge)
  • Estimate the PSF of the detector with a neural network constrained by the film heat diffusion and the optics, estimated from a few measurements; explain the gap between the theoretical (about 1 mm) and measured (4 to 8 mm) resolution; compare with conventional methods
  • Implement denoising by self-supervised deep denoising of the maps, quantify the gain in dB towards 35 to 40 dB, and rank the limiting factors of the setup
  • Validate by test whether the imaging resolves the individual elements of array antennas in the Ku and Ka bands, before and after improvement; report on the retained methods

What we're looking for

  • Bac+5 - Engineering school / Master in applied mathematics, signal and image processing, machine learning and/or electromagnetics
  • Programming skills (preferably Python), experience with a deep learning framework
  • Team spirit, proactive attitude and good communication skills in an interdisciplinary team

Nice to have

  • Knowledge of inverse problems or infrared cameras

About ANYFIELDS

ANYFIELDS measures antennas by infrared thermography: a thermosensitive film heated by the radiated field is imaged by an infrared camera, giving a 2D map of the electric field, nonintrusive and very close to the antenna.
