The operation of modern electronic communication devices rely on constant energy sources such as DC power obtained from AC sources via AC to DC conversion or small chargeable/replaceable batteries. However, in some cases, providing constant energy source is not feasible. Due to the advancement in technology, energy harvesting technologies can be exploited to power-up the modern day electronic communication devices. These energy harvesting technologies rely on energy sources naturally present in the environment, such as solar energy, wind energy, and heat energy. Moreover, energy can also be acquired from the human body from movement of different parts of the body such as walking, heartbeat, movement of arms, just to name a few. All these energy harvesting technologies and techniques may satisfy the need of energy for low power communication devices and may enable the charging of electronic mobile devices anywhere and at any time. In this Special Section, we focus on the most recent advances in the interdisciplinary research areas encompassing the Energy Harvesting domain. This special section will bring together researchers from diverse fields and specializations, such as communications engineering, computer science, electrical and electronics engineering, bio-medical engineering, education sector, mathematics and specialists in the areas related to energy harvesting technologies. In this Special Section, we invite researchers from academia, industry, and governmental organizations to discuss challenging ideas, novel research contributions, demonstration results, and standardization efforts on the energy harvesting and related areas. Topics of interest include, but not limited to the following: - Battery Recharging Techniques - Harvesting Technologies (Solar Cells, Peizoelectric, Electrostatic, Bio Fuel Cell) - Analysis of Energy Sources (walking, body heat, heart beat etc) in Body Area Networks - Solar Energy based Battery Recharging - Bio Chemical Energy Harvesting Sources - Bio Mechanical Energy Harvesting Sources - Ambient Energy Harvesting Sources - Wind Energy based Battery Recharging - Head Energy based Battery Recharging - Wireless Power Transfer - Inductive Coupling Methods of Energy Harvesting - Magnetic Resonance based Methods of Energy Harvesting - Energy Harvesting in Wireless Body Area Networks - Energy Harvesting in Cellular Networks - Energy Harvesting in Cognitive Cellular Systems - Energy Harvesting in Wireless Sensor Networks - Standardization Activities for Energy Harvesting in Communication Networks - Spectrum Related Issues for Energy Harnessing - Security and Privacy Issues of Energy Harvesting - Algorithms and Protocols for Energy Harvesting We also highly recommend the submission of multimedia with each article as it significantly increases the visibility, downloads, and citations of articles.

The automotive industry has recently shifted from developing advanced vehicles to concentrating on safety and comfort; which stimulates the development of new intelligent vehicles with advanced driver assistance systems and even autonomous driving. However, the current technology development is still far from the practical requirements of autonomous driving. This is because the existing control approaches are mainly based on expensive sensors and cameras employed in the vehicle that hinder the development and popularization of intelligent vehicles. Thanks to wireless communication networks, vehicles can be connected and communicate to each other. Thus, the control of vehicles will become more reliable and cost-efficient with the communication between vehicles. Therefore, cooperatively controlling vehicles by employing reliable communications has become one of key research issues in the Fifth Generation (5G) wireless communication networks. Due to the high mobility of vehicles and the dynamic change of the network topology, it is difficult to provide satisfied services only through a single wireless access network, such as the Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) or the Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks. Hence, to provide ubiquitous networks, Heterogeneous Vehicular Networks may well support the communication, control and computation requirements of intelligent vehicles. However it faces multiple critical challenges in designing efficient and flexible resource allocation algorithms since this requires the joint design and optimization of both communication, computing and control theory. This will play a very important role in the development of next generation intelligent vehicular networks. The goal of this Special Section in IEEE Access is to provide the most recent research and developments on the enabling technologies for heterogeneous vehicular networks and to stimulate discussions on state-of-the-art and innovative aspects in the field. This Special Section focuses on advanced communication and control techniques for intelligent vehicles. Original research and review articles are encouraged. Topics of interests include (but are not limited to): --Heterogeneous vehicular network architectures and services --Performance evaluation of radio technologies in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Control protocol design in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Autonomous driving control technologies in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Resource allocation and control in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Vehicle social networks in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Mobile cloud computing in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Software-Defined Networking(SDN) for supporting reliable control --Network Function Virtualization (NFV) in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Efficient Big Data analysis in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Mobile sensing networking in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Dynamic spectrum access technologies in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Urban sensing for environment monitoring in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Security, privacy and trust in heterogeneous vehicular networks --Testbed platform ! and field trials in heterogeneous vehicular networks We also highly recommend the submission of multimedia with each article as it significantly increases the visibility, downloads, and citations of articles.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Deadline extended to Nov. 8 - SI on IoT - IEEE Wireless Communications Datum: Wed, 26 Oct 2016 10:56:13 +0800 Von: Dr Ying-Dar Lin <ydlin(a)CS.NCTU.EDU.TW> Antwort an: Dr Ying-Dar Lin <ydlin(a)CS.NCTU.EDU.TW> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG IEEE Wireless Communications Special Issue on IoT: Protocol Stack, Cross-Layer, and Power Consumption Issues Extended due date: November 8, 2016 Publication date: June 2017 With the Internet of Things (IoT) revolution, over 50 billion connected things in the world are expected by year 2020 and 40% of all world data will come from IoT devices and sensors (expected to generate a total of 129 yottabytes) - nearly reaching 90% of the world’s data created in the last 2 years. Things and devices forming IoT are a variety of microcontrollers (MCUs), special systems-on-chip (SoC), sensors and sensor networks. With this dramatic evolution in the types and volume of connected devices and the generated data from these devices, radio technologies need to accommodate the IoT device environments and characteristics, including different environments of “outdoor, indoor, urban, rural”, battery operated devices, form factors, and communication ranges. In addition, communication protocols should adapt to IoT service requirements for real-time and mission critical applications. Consequently, there is a need for smart radio technologies and communication protocols that support low-power and ultra-low power operation, multiple communication ranges, diversity of traffic ranging from 3 bytes of data for telemetry to HD video streams for surveillance, as well as indoor and outdoor environments. Some unique exemplary challenges include efficient service discovery between devices, sleep mode management, communication between devices, smart choice of the appropriate radio to use, application requirement, and power constraint. In this context, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Zigbee, and Z-Wave emerge as short range and low power wireless communication technologies on one hand. On the other hand, cellular and sub-GHz communication technologies are also emerging within 3GPP and IEEE standards to allow for long coverage especially in rural environments but still facing low power challenges. Sigfox appears to provide a cellular system for devices continuously on and emitting small amounts of data. mmWave represents another opportunity for IoT communication and is being discussed within the 5G network framework working in higher frequency bands and providing very high throughput. Despite of all these radio technology evolution and advancement in communication protocols to satisfy IoT traffic and communication requirements, there is not yet a clear vision of how IoT radio and communication eco-system will look like by 2020 besides green communication. All these unique challenges demand great effort in academic, industry, standardization organizations, and governments. The aim of this Special Issue is to present a collection of high-quality articles that report the latest research advances on*Next Generation Wireless Technologies for IoT*. It will include various topics of interest, but not limited to: * Short, medium and long range radio access (RFID, NFC, DASH7, 4G, 5G, 6LowPAN, Zigbee, Z-Wave, WirelessHART, ISA100.11a, IEEE 802.15.4) * Smart sleep and wake up modes for IoT with efficiency and context awareness * Efficient transport and routing protocols for IoT standards and architectures (IETF, IEEE, ETSI, oneM2M, IoT6, IoT-A, ISA, ISO/IEC, IPSO, ITU-T, U2IoT) * Smart bandwidth utilization including network coding techniques for 5G * Wireless wearable and IoT communication architectures and systems * 5G heterogeneous wireless access technologies enabling low latency and low power IoT access networks * Standardization and regulation on mmWave usage in 5G and IoT * Edge networking in IoT including challenges for low power transmissions, security and privacy of cognitive radio * Near-zero energy and renewable energy radios for IoT and PHY/MAC layer techniques for long range low power IoT * Proof of concepts and experimental work on long range low power wireless technologies SUBMISSIONS Prospective authors should prepare their submissions in accordance with the rules specified in the Information for Authors of the/IEEE Wireless Communications/guidelines (http://www.comsoc.org/wirelessmag/paper-submission-guidelines). Authors should submit a PDF version of their complete manuscript tohttp://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/ieee-wcm. The timetable is as follows: IMPORTANT DATES * Submission Deadline: November 8, 2016 * Initial Decision: January 1, 2017 * Revised Manuscript Due: February 1, 2017 * Final Decision: March 15, 2017 * Final Manuscript Due: April 1, 2017 * Publication: June 2017 GUEST EDITORS Abderrahim Benslimane University of Avignon, France benslimane(a)ieee.org <mailto:benslimane@ieee.org>(corresponding editor) siiot2016(a)gmail.com <mailto:siiot2016@gmail.com> Hassnaa Moustafa Intel, USA Milena Radenkovic University of Nottingham, UK Ying-Dar Lin National Chiao Tung University, Taiwan ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
