Keynote 1:
Innovating Intelligent Environments: New Perspectives on Wireless Communications and Sensing
Time: 8:45-10:00am, Monday, Sept. 23, 2024
Session Chair: Sangtae Ha, University of Colorado Boulder, USA
Abstract:
Abstract:
In the AI era, wireless communication and sensing technologies play a critical role. AI relies on powerful servers, while numerous applications operate on resource-constrained edge devices. Wireless communication serves as a bridge between edge devices and servers. Meanwhile, current AI mainly focuses on video, speech, and text, whereas wireless sensing technology greatly broadens our horizons by sensing beyond the line of sight and detecting physical properties and chemical compositions, effectively enabling our sixth sense. In this talk, we will provide an overview of the current state of development and present our vision and some explorations on developing intelligent environments to support wireless communication and sensing technologies, including optimizing low earth orbit satellite communication, mmWave coverage, acoustic sensing and imaging.
