Abstract

The aim of this symposium is to provide a forum for researchers and technologists to present new ideas and contributions in the form of technical papers, panel discussions as well as real&#8211;world evaluation of many ideas in wireless communications, networking and signal processing employed to support the needs of the Information Society&#046; This eleventh symposium will bring together various wireless communication systems developers to discuss the current status, technical challenges, standards, fundamental issues, and future services and applications&#046; ISWCS’14 seeks to address and capture highly&#8211;innovative and state&#8211;of&#8211;the&#8211;art research from academia, the wireless industry as well as standardization advances&#046; The scope of the conference includes a wide range of technical challenges encompassing wireless communications, information theory, quality of service support, networking, signal processing, cross&#8211;layer design for improved performance, and future wireless broadband systems&#046; The topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:<br>Track 1: Communication theory, signal processing, information theory, antennas and propagation<br>&#8211; Multiuser, network, massive and distributed MIMO systems<br>&#8211; Spread spectrum systems: UWB, CDMA<br>&#8211; Advanced Multicarrier waveforms: beyond OFDM and filterbank&#8211;based schemes<br>&#8211; Precoding, scheduling, limited feedback<br>&#8211; Information theory<br>&#8211; Green communications and energy efficiency<br>&#8211; Space&#8211;time coding and adaptive array processing<br>&#8211; Equalization, synchronization, channel estimation<br>&#8211; Error control coding including turbo codes, LDPC and iterative decoding<br>&#8211; Detection and estimation algorithms<br>&#8211; Adaptive modulation and coding<br>&#8211; Cooperative communications and relaying<br>&#8211; Network coding<br>&#8211; Performance analysis<br>&#8211; Cross&#8211;layer air interface design<br>&#8211; Wireless access and transmission techniques<br>&#8211; Resource allocation<br>&#8211; Satellite and high altitude platforms<br>&#8211; Antennas and propagation<br>&#8211; Multimedia systems<br>&#8211; Localization techniques<br>&#8211; Future PMR/PPDR broadband systems and concepts for 5G<br>&#8211; Physical layer security<br>Track 2: Networking, protocols, cognitive radio, wireless sensor networks, services and applications<br>&#8211; Cognitive radio networking<br>&#8211; Green networking<br>&#8211; Mobile Internet<br>&#8211; Heterogeneous networking<br>&#8211; MANETs<br>&#8211; Vehicular Networks (VANETs)<br>&#8211; Wireless sensor networks<br>&#8211; Machine&#8211;to&#8211;machine communications<br>&#8211; MAC protocols<br>&#8211; Self&#8211;organisation<br>&#8211; Radio resource management and interference control<br>&#8211; Wireless routing techniques<br>&#8211; Mobility management<br>&#8211; End&#8211;to&#8211;End QoS and QoS provisioning<br>&#8211; Traffic control and engineering<br>&#8211; Wireless privacy and security<br>&#8211; Multimedia systems<br>&#8211; Innovative services and applications<br>&#8211; Implementation concepts and testbeds<br>&#8211; Homeland security and military communications<br>&#8211; Device&#8211;to&#8211;Device (D2D) Communication<br>&#8211; ICT applications in smart cities and smart grid<br>Track 3: Special sessions<br>Paper Submission Guidelines – Acceptance will be based on an extended abstract or a full paper (5 pages)&#046; In case of an extended abstract submission, diagrams, results, and bibliography have to be provided to allow the reviewers to assess the contribution of your work&#046; All accepted and registered papers included in the final programme will appear in the IEEE Xplore database&#046; In addition to the paper submission, an abstract (approx&#046; 150 words) shall be submitted&#046; The submission has to be performed electronically via EDAS paper management system, this will be possible starting from January 2014&#046; Detailed submission instructions can be found at Initial Submission&#046;<br>
