This special session, held in conjunction with 2023 International Symposium on Communications and Information Technologies (ISCIT 2023), will bring mmWave and THz communications researchers in academia, industry and national research labs, funding agencies and policy makers under one venue — to present their latest research findings and to discuss and brainstorm on the future challenges when conquering the spectrum in the mmWave and THz bands.
The topics of interest of this special session include, but are not limited to:
Novel mmWave and THz physical, MAC, network, transport, application, and cross-technology/layer concepts and designs
MmWave and THz analog- and hybrid-beamforming in MIMO, massive MIMO, and ultra-massive MIMO
MmWave- and THz-based ultra-reliable and low-latency communications for beyond 5G and/or 6G
MmWave- and THz-based secure communications for beyond 5G and/or 6G
MmWave- and THz-based mechanisms to support link discovery, establishment, mobility, and tracking
Spectrum sharing above 100 GHz, coexistence of active and passive users, policy and regulatory aspects
Ultra-broadband wireless backhaul based on mmWave/THz technology, integrated access and backhaul
Novel ultra-broadband mmWave and THz research platforms and testbed development
Channel measurements, modeling, and simulations
Joint communications with localisation, sensing, imaging, and/or tracking using mmWave and THz signals
Medical and/or military applications of mmWave and THz sensing systems
MmWave and THz V2X: Vehicular-to-anything communication
Emerging mmWave and THz applications including AR/V, wireless data centers, and drone-based networks
THz components and systems for beyond 5G and/or 6G
THz sources and detectors
THz spectroscopy, imaging and sensing
