Bakgrund
Sebastian Bader joined Mid Sweden University in 2008, when he started his PhD education in electronics at the Department of Electronics Design. Previous to that, Sebastian has obtained his Diplom-Ingenieur degree in Information Technology at the University of Applied Sciences in Wilhelmshaven, Germany.
Sebastian has obtained his Licentiate of Technology and Doctor of Technology degrees in 2011 and 2013, respectively. After that, he was employed as a postdoctoral research assistant and as associate senior lecturer in the periods 2013-2015 and 2015-2017, respectively. Since 2018, he is employed as a senior lecturer, and since 2021 he is an associate professor of embedded systems.
During his time at Mid Sweden University, Sebastian has been a visiting researcher at CSIRO in Australia (2011), and at the University of Southampton (2015-2017). He is also active in a number of international networks, regularly performs international teaching and research activities, and gives international talks. Sebastian is a senior member of the IEEE, a member of the PSMA Energy Harvesting Committee, Associate Editor for Sustainable Computing: Informatics and Systems, Topic Editor for the MDPI Sensors Journal, and a member of the steering committee of the IEEE Sensors Applications Symposium (SAS).
Forskning
Sebastian's current research focuses on the energy consumption and energy supply of autonomous sensor systems. With the growing demand of autonomous electronic systems in the IoT and smart world paradigms, the lifetime of these devices becomes increasingly important in order to reduce maintenance demands.
In his research, Sebastian is currently particularly interested in self-powered systems that utilise and extract ambient energy sources in order to generate the electricity required for their operation. Application scenarios include environmental monitoring applications, but have recently more focused on industrial applications and the kinetic energy sources to be found there. Sebastian also conducts research in Tiny Machine Learning, that means the implementation of machine learning algorithms on very resource limited devices.
Undervisning
Sebastian is active in the educational offerings at the Department of Computer and Electrical Engineering, where he is program manager for the Master of Science in Engineering program in Electrical Engineering (Civilingenjör i elektroteknik) and the Master of Science program in Electrical Engineering.
Sebastian's teaching is centered around education in embedded systems, with, amongst others, courses in embedded system programming, embedded machine learning and sensor networks. He is also involved in teaching activities on scientific writing and regularly supervises students in engineering and research projects, as well as BSc and MSc thesis works.
