Master Thesis, 30 hp: Advanced mathematical transforms for new signal processing methods in radar systems

Are you a student eager to apply your theoretical knowledge and fresh perspectives to real-world challenges? At Saab, we believe that innovation thrives on new ideas, and your master thesis project could be the spark that ignites our next technological breakthrough. Your role We recognize the immense value that students bring to our company. Your academic rigor, combined with your enthusiasm for cutting-edge technology, allows you to approach problems with a unique and insightful lens. At Saab, you'll have the opportunity to collaborate with experienced engineers and specialists, gaining invaluable practical experience while making a tangible contribution to our growth and development. Background Improvements in computational power and resources in a radar system now allow for new and more advanced types of mathematical transformations. These transformations can be used as a foundation for new radar signal processing methods. In earlier radar systems, such transformations and signal processing based on these, have been hindered by limits in both analog and digital electronics. With emerging radar systems, this situation is now changing and versions of these transformations are now becoming feasible. Description of the Thesis Project This master thesis will be centered around the study of transformations dealing with target dynamics exceeding standard assumptions in a variety of scenarios. The scope of this master thesis is: Review of a set of advanced mathematical transformations Analysis concerning the applicability of these transformations for a set of radar modes and systems Evaluation of computational complexity for a set of radar modes and systems Evaluation of radar performance for a set of radar modes and systems Your profile The master thesis includes modelling and simulations in Matlab or similar software. It also includes reviewing a set of publications for given transformations (multiple such exist in the public domain, the thesis supervisors will help select the most relevant for this master thesis). This master thesis is suitable for 2 students with an interest in mathematics and signal processing, and with a background in Engineering Mathematics, Engineering Physics, Electrical Engineering, or similar. We provide the support and guidance you need to translate your theoretical knowledge into practical solutions. Join us and become a driving force behind Saab's technological advancements!

When she and her team know that a system they’ve worked on is about to be used in the field, sometimes as soon as the following week. That’s when her work becomes real and tangible, and this drives her forward.  2 Jul 2026 Jacob is at his best close to production  3 min Jacob Gästrin is not one for sitting still. One day he’s building electronics in the lab. The next, he’s out on the production floor troubleshooting a test rig that’s gone down. The day after that, he’s writing software code. No two days are alike, and that’s exactly how he likes it. 28 Dec 2021 Creating the best conditions for employees to succeed  5 min According to Anna, Saab has some of the coolest products in the world and this is something we should be proud of.
