ai-driven integrated sensing and communications for 6g

november 18, 2024 valletta, malta


workshop scope

with the fast development of smart terminals and emerging new applications (e.g., real-time and interactive services, distributed learning, iot), wireless data traffic has drastically increased, and current wireless networks cannot completely match the quickly rising technical requirements. as a result, the expectation and development of 6g have attracted a great deal of attention. recently, in 6g mobile communication systems, the use of higher frequency bands, such as the millimeter-wave and terahertz bands, and massive antenna arrays will enable high-accuracy and high-resolution sensing, which can be exploited to integrate wireless signal sensing and communication (isac) in a single system. moreover, a lot of research results show that machine-learning is a key enabler for 6g, since the key issues behind synchronization, channel estimation, equalization, signal detection, iterative decoding, and multi-user detection in wireless communication systems can be solved by carefully designed machine learning algorithms. it is worth noting that machine leaning also can be used to design isac systems, such as for waveform design and optimization.

this workshop aims to explore the potential benefits of the combination of ai and isac for 6g. this research field is relatively new and has not been well understood. therefore, this workshop is expected to bring together and disseminate state-of-the-art research contributions that promote the research in this field and gather contributions from industry and academia on ai-driven iasc for 6g. prospective authors are invited to submit high-quality and original manuscripts on topics including, but not limited to:

  • isac in millimeter-wave and terahertz bands for 6g
  • reconfigurable intelligent surface-assisted isac for 6g
  • integrated artificial intelligence and computing for 6g
  • ai-driven space-air-ground integrated network
  • ai-driven vehicular networks for 6g
  • security and privacy in 6g
  • testbeds and prototypes of ai-driven 6g
