This year the Rohde & Schwarz Engineering Competition starts into the 17th round.
And everything is different. Due to the ongoing COVID 19-pandemic the whole competition takes place online and gets even more exciting by competing against teams from all over the world!
Become part of the competition community and help us with your solution!
MAKE IDEAS REAL to ensure a safer and connected world!
We believe the heart of innovation lies in smart software solutions. That's why we constantly check and challenge the status quo of communications engineering.
Now it's your turn: bring conventional signal analysis to the next level and develop a smart algorithm to estimate the right signal parameters.
You will have the exclusive chance to work with the R&S®VSE vector signal explorer software, our state-of-the-art signal analysis software. It brings the experience and power of Rohde & Schwarz signal analysis to the desktop, offering a wide range of analysis tools. With this software, users analyze and troubleshoot analog and digitally modulated signals for a wide range of standards.
Get ready to qualify!
1. Use the R&S®VSE to estimate the signal parameters of several demo signals.
2. Develop a python program to automatically estimate signal parameters.
3. Submit your code, which will be tested against an unknown new signal.
4. Not ranked first? Improve and resubmit your code ;)
How is the ranking of your code determined? The ranking criteria are error vector magnitude (EVM) and runtime.
Only the best teams will make it to the online finals!

years of expertise in hosting the competition
The tasks are aimed at students majoring in electrical engineering or software engineering – ideally with specialization in communication engineering.
We recommend that students have completed at least second year. But, students who have completed fewer semesters may participate. Get participants who have completed higher semesters to be part of your team!
It doesn't matter whether the participants are working towards a bachelor's, master's or diploma.
Students that have finished or left their studies, graduates and PhD candidates are not allowed to participate. Please note: This is a competition for students of electrical and software engineering.
Technical knowledge of signal analysis and python as programming language may be helpful, but not obligatory. We recommend to build a interdisciplinary team. You can also check out the challenge before registration.
We ask you to register as a team. Teams may consist of three to five persons.
