As part of this role, future scenarios involving unmanned aerial systems (UAS) will be simulated, and their impact on humans will be studied. The focus will be on examining the effects of distinctive acoustic characteristics (psychoacoustics) of drones, the changes in noise with multiple sources, and aspects related to distance. The goal is to simulate and evaluate defined, prototypical traffc scenarios involving UAS.

Key responsibilities include:

• Modeling sound sources, sound propagation, including superposition effects, and the impact at the
  point of reception
• Conducting experimental studies to assess the resulting sounds concerning various noise effects
• Supervising students working on thesis projects related to the topic

The Ëndings from this research will contribute to the development of guidelines for effective protection against noise disturbance caused by UAS traffic.

This exciting and diverse role offers an inclusive and appreciative working atmosphere within a committed and diverse team, numerous opportunities for professional development, room for your ideas and mentoring by experienced scientists, flexible working models, including the possibility of partial remote work.

• completed academic degree (Master, Diplom or equivalent) in an engineering Field or an area
  closely related to engineering acoustics
• In-depth knowledge of acoustics and signal processing
• Good understanding of psychoacoustics
• Basic knowledge of acoustic measurement techniques
• Experience with Python
• Proficiency in German and/or English; willingness to acquire the missing language skills

Desired Qualifications:

• Experience in planning, conducting, and analyzing scientific experiments related to human auditory
  perception
• Knowledge of statistical methods, particularly inferential statistics
