Description:
Future mobile networks are expected to support various new applications, e.g., industrial automation, remote control, vehicles self-driving, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) communication, extended reality (XR), sensing and localization. Beyond conventional content distribution, these applications usually are mission-critical and demand diverse service requirements like ultra-high reliability, low-latency, massive connectivity, and high bandwidth efficiency, heterogeneous data traffic and so on. In the existing paradigm, it is challenging to achieve these critical requirements in a dynamic environment of the mobile network. Moreover, some mobile applications, e.g., including indoor positioning, vehicular networks, and covert communications, require the network to provide not only communication connections but also sensing services. In such network, joint sensing and communication design/operation becomes a promising way to improve the efficiency of exploiting spectral and signaling resource. Such integration of sensing and communication can happen at different levels, from loosely coupled to fully integrated. This “Mobile Applications and Sensing” track seeks to bring together researchers from academia and industry to share their views on the trends and challenges in mobile applications and sensing.
