About this opportunity:
platform to handle the parts of a telecom workload for which it is best suited. In a RAN setting, network measurements and operational data are collected, filtered, and encoded by classical components before selected computational tasks are sent to a quantum processor. Understanding and optimizing these end-to-end data flows is essential for assessing whether quantum acceleration can provide practical value in telecom systems.
What you will do:
The thesis includes the following tasks:
• Review quantum algorithms for RAN workloads, with emphasis on the capabilities of integrated quantum-classical systems.
• Select a representative RAN use case and define the research question, target capabilities, and evaluation metrics.
• Prepare data and experimental scenarios that reflect RAN workloads and are suitable for state-of-the-art quantum computers.
• Implement appropriate conventional baselines and define the corresponding key performance indicators.
• Develop and validate a quantum computing architecture focused on the selected capability, such as latency, portability, robust processing, etc.
• Evaluate the proposed architecture against the selected baselines using the defined metrics.
• Assess hardware suitability by analyzing qubit requirements, circuit depth, compilation overhead, and quantum-classical interconnect latency.
• Document the proposed solution, methodology, and evaluation results.
The skills you bring:
• MSc Student in Computer Science, Engineering Physics, Machine Learning, Mathematics.
• Proficient in Probability Theory, Neural Networks, System Modeling, quantum computing.
• Understanding of quantum computers (superconducting, neutral atoms trapped ion) and
software stacks (QISKIT, Cuda-Q, Pennylane, etc.)
• Good programing skills are required, knowledge of C++, Python.
Additional Details
The work is expected to start in Jan 2027. The work is proposed for 1 student for a duration of 6 months. Location is at Ericsson Research in Stockholm (Kista), Sweden.
