The full laboratory setup can consume significant energy, including during idle periods or when equipment runs at higher power levels than testing requires.\nIn this master’s thesis, you’ll assess where laboratory energy is used and develop a practical power-management strategy to reduce consumption without compromising measurement accuracy, equipment safety, test repeatability or verification requirements. The work will focus on operational energy use in the laboratory and help make energy use more visible, test campaigns more efficient and RPV operations more sustainable.\nWhat you will do:\n\nMeasure baseline energy use across representative test campaigns, including setup, active testing, idle, standby and shutdown.\n\nMap consumption across major contributors such as radio units, power amplifiers, signal generators, analyzers, automation servers, cooling and auxiliary equipment.\n\nStudy how RF output power, equipment operating point and test duration affect total energy use per test.\n\nDevelop and assess practical optimization measures, such as improved test sequencing, automatic standby, controlled power-up and power-down, reduced idle time, equipment sharing and cooling set-point adjustments.\n\nCompare baseline and optimized test campaigns, checking energy use alongside measurement uncertainty, repeatability, requirement coverage and defect-detection capability.\n\nQuantify energy use per test and campaign, peak and average power demand, idle-period savings, equipment utilization, and estimated annual energy, cost and carbon-emission reductions.\n\nRecommend improvements to automation, laboratory procedures and future test setups, while respecting warm-up requirements, thermal limits, calibration conditions, safety rules and RPV specifications.\n\nThe skills you bring:\n\nYou are currently pursuing a master’s degree in electrical engineering, energy systems, sustainable energy, mechanical engineering, automation, applied physics or a related field.\n\nYou are interested in energy efficiency, measurement and data analysis, laboratory systems, radio-frequency testing or power management.\n\nExperience with energy monitoring, electrical power measurements, RF equipment, RPV testing, laboratory automation, scripting or data analysis is a plus.\n\nFamiliarity with cooling systems, equipment operating limits, test repeatability or verification requirements is a plus.\n\nWhy join Ericsson? At Ericsson, you´ll have an outstanding opportunity. The chance to use your skills and imagination to push the boundaries of what´s possible. To build solutions never seen before to some of the world’s toughest problems. You´ll be challenged, but you won’t be alone.
