CALL FOR PAPERS

Over the past two decades, wireless communications have fundamentally transformed our daily life and created an almost fully connected society, linking billions of people and devices to reap the benefits of today’s digital economy. Every sector of the world economy now relies on wireless technologies in fundamental ways, from banking and agriculture to transportation and healthcare. In addition, powerful cutting-edge technologies that rely on robust wireless communications networks – such as 5G, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and Industry 4.0 – hold great potential for improving lives at an unprecedented pace and scale.

However, the rapid development of advanced telecommunications networks, in response to the continuously growing global demand for data transmission and access to information, also entails a very large increase in the resources used. The telecommunications of the future must face new challenges, including a significant reduction in energy consumption while maintaining the same quality parameters, and ensuring sustainable development through the responsible use of available resources.

At the same time, the complexity of telecommunications systems is increasing so significantly that the processes of design, maintenance and development have to be considered holistically. There is a strong need for making the network not only resource sustainable, but also autonomous and automated.

There is also room for societal and technological improvements to address the digital divide that continues to exist in the world. Tackling uneven global distribution and ensuring a better world requires super-connecting the already connected and connecting the unconnected, while guaranteeing an impressive quality of experience worldwide. Future wireless communication systems must also effectively support a universal and ubiquitous cyber physical infrastructure.

The huge variety of intelligent applications envisaged for a wireless future will require a novel network structure, spectrum access schemes, and resource allocation solutions, while factoring in energy efficiency and security/privacy considerations. Thus, highly innovative wireless solutions with varied quality specifications when it comes to service requirements have become paramount in ensuring a greener world. Examples of some technological breakthroughs include intelligent surfaces, semantic communications, and digital twin technology, to name a few.

Under the theme “Towards sustainable and automated communications”, the 49th Wireless World Research Forum (WWRF) will take place at Poznan University of Technology, Poland, from 28-30 March 2023. You are invited to be part of designing the wireless future by joining us for three days of insightful discussions, presentations, innovative brainstorming, and expert-level networking.
