Who we are:

Qoherent is driving the creation of intelligent radio technologies. Intelligent radios integrate machine learning-based signal processing to build more robust, aware, and adaptive radiofrequency (RF) communications and sensing systems that generally out perform traditional radio systems.

Qoherent creates data-driven solutions using machine learning techniques for passive sensing of the RF spectrum to identify and analyze signals such LTE, 5GNR, and more. Our product offering includes application-specific IP composed of datasets and models, as well as design tools that help engineers bridge the knowledge gap between the RF and ML domains. Qoherent also investigates applications of quantum machine learning as applied to real-world RF problems.

Project overview:

Qoherent is investigating offering its services into the global satellite communications industry. This project, which is an investigation into the satellite communications market will help us understand the industry environment such as:

• landscape and market composition
• players (on the ground and in space)
• trends, challenges, and opportunities
• industry size
• economic drivers
• suppliers and customers
• applications

We hope to use the knowledge gathered in the project to inform future plans for business development and R&D. We would like students to complete a project that summarizes findings from primary and secondary research activities such as:

• Researching via databases
• Reviewing market research reports
• Reading annual and quarterly reports of publicly traded companies.
• Conducting interviews with industry stakeholders

Qoherent will begin the project with an orientation of its current business, and its plans for satellite communications, and any necessary coaching to complete the project. Qoherent will also provide a starting point for industry stakeholders to speak to.

Other details:

• Number of students required: Up to a team of 3 students, but individuals will be accepted.
• Commitment: Up to 80 hours per student for the duration of the project
• Scope: A presentation, an executive summary, a written report and any appendixes that outline findings of the project.

All activities will be done through Qoherent's CEO who will do a 2-hour initial orientation and follow-up with the students.

We will schedule multiple check-ins with the student groups, but we will also be available ad-hoc as necessary to help guide the project.

The CEO will be available via email.
