Now you have the opportunity to join one of the world's leading companies within highly advanced hearing solutions.  
Currently we are looking for a student assistant who can help us test our hearing aid antenna performance. 

 

Your main task 
Our hearing aid antennas are designed to establish a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio link between the hearing aid and another device e.g. a smartphone, for transferring audio- and control signals. A great number of use cases exist, and we need to make sure, that the connection quality is excellent in all relevant cases. In addition to this, a set of regulatory emission requirements exist, which need to be met as well. Your task will be to assist in doing the measurements needed, for verifying this. 

 

More specifically, your tasks could be: 

  • Measuring transmitted radiated power (TRP) in our antenna chamber
  • Quantifying link quality in a variety of both use cases and environments
  • Measuring out-of-band emission levels (e.g. harmonics)
  • Doing subjective listening tests
  • Measurements can be done having the hearing device in either free space or placed on the ear, as well as within different reflective and interference environments 

Your profile 
We are looking for an engineering student (BSc/MSc) who is about to specialize in RF and/or antenna design. Some basic characteristics: 
•    Basic understanding of Electromagnetism 
•    Knowledge about wireless communication and RF 
•    Natural interest in antenna measurements & data analysis 
•    Analytical and structured approach 

 

You are at least halfway through your bachelor, and you are considering doing your final thesis within the area of RF or antenna theory. 
The work amount will be 1 day/week (8 hours). Specific weekday can be agreed, and we are off course flexible around exams or classes at university. 
 
At Demant we value diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) and we are committed to creating an inclusive working environment. We welcome applications from all qualified candidates regardless of ethnic background, personality, age, gender, and education. Diversity is one of our core values. Women in STEM areas are particularly encouraged to apply, as Demant supports United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 5 on gender equality.
