CALL FOR PAPERS 5G WF’18, July 9-11, 2018,
Santa Clara, CA, USA, http://ieee-wf-5g.org/ Full-Day
Workshop “5G
– Satellite Networks: Applications, Challenges and Standards” |
|
Scope The vision of
5G in delivering the advanced services such as virtualization, enabler of
smart cities, smart environments, and M2M within the context of
Information-Centric Networks has recently attracted enormous attention by
industry, academia, and standard organizations. Currently, several High
Throughput Satellites (HTS) are under construction to deliver 100s Gb/s and
projected to result in Terabits/sec by 2020-2025 across the world. However,
several technical and regulatory challenges have to be addressed such as a) Vision and architecture of the integrated
5G-satellite system, b) new
constellations including GEO/MEO/LEO, c)
Spectrum sharing and use of new frequency bands-Q/V/W, d) innovative techniques to improve efficiency, e) QoS/QoE,
and f) regulations and
standardization. 5G-Satellite integrated communications networking offers enormous
advantages such as allowing users to access the highly reliable information
for health, mobile broadband and secure/emergency services not only in urban
areas, but also in rural areas, in the deserts and the seas. The objectives
of this full-day workshop are (1) to bring together experts and researchers
from the international research community from North America, Europe, and
Asia Pacific, (2) to address the market potential and emerging applications
and services, (3) to allow the industry and project leaders to share some
preliminary results of test beds, (4) to enhance the understanding of the
promising (but yet challenging) paradigm and deployment practices of
5G-Satellite. This workshop
proposal has been organized in the framework of the 5G-satellite roadmap
working group of IEEE. If the paper is
accepted and presented, it will be included in the conference proceedings and
be submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. This workshop
has also obtained the technical endorsement by the ESA project SatNEx IV (http://www.satnex4.org/) This workshop is expected to include: · Two keynotes
speeches by renowned high-profile scientists in this field · Invited papers
from renowned researchers in this area · One panel
session involving industry, regulators, and main stockholders. |
