Revolutionizing Connectivity of 6G Wireless Communications from Connected Things to Connected Intelligent

MESSAGE FROM THE SESSION CHAIRS

During the initial phase of transitioning from connected devices to connected intelligence, 6G communication technologies were still conceptualizing their capabilities and prospective requirements. 6G would necessitate significantly higher data speeds than 5G. This may entail attaining data speeds of terabit-per-second to facilitate applications like holographic communication, high-definition virtual reality (VR), and high-fidelity telepresence. With the growing interconnectedness and increasing dependence of vital services on 6G networks, it is crucial to prioritize strong security and privacy safeguards. For the purpose of protecting users' data and communications, 6G systems should integrate sophisticated encryption algorithms, authentication procedures, and privacy-preserving technologies. Additionally, in light of growing apprehensions over the environmental ramifications of technology, it is imperative for 6G to prioritize the reduction of its carbon emissions and ecological imprint. This may entail enhancing network infrastructure, advocating for energy-efficient products, and investigating renewable energy sources to power communication networks. Besides, there are various objectives that must be met, including achieving extremely low latency, establishing extensive connectivity, maximizing energy efficiency, optimizing spectral efficiency, using new antenna technologies, adhering to global standards, and ensuring interoperability. We are inviting submissions of original, high-quality research papers to this Special Session. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Next Generation Antenna Technologies for Future Wireless Networks: Extra Large-MIMO, Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces, and Cell-Free Massive MIMO
• Integrated Sensing and Communications
• Holographic MIMO Communications
• Network Softwarization Techniques for IoT Application (NetSoftIoT)
• Emerging Technologies in Aerial and Space Networks
• Green Communications and Networking
• Optical Wireless Communications and Networking
• TeraHeazt Communications and Networking
• AI/ML-Powered Autonomous Telecommunication Networks
• Security and Privacy in 6G
• Quantum Communications and Networking
