SUBMISSION IS NOW OPEN FOR THE
14th IST MOBILE AND WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SUMMIT 19-22 June 2005 Dresden - Germany www.mobilesummit2005.org
IMPORTANT DATES 31 January 2005 Submission deadline (full paper, max. 5 pages) Indication of interest in exhibition booths 15 March 2005 Notification of acceptance 15 April 2005 Final paper due 19-22 June 2005 IST Mobile and Wireless Communications Summit
CALL FOR PAPERS
Placing people at the centre of an 'all-communicating' world is the exciting vision of ambient intelligence. New paradigms in the areas of network design, transmission technology, hardware and software solutions, applications, services, and business models will be necessary to realize such interactive environments. The arising challenges are currently being addressed in a number of research projects within the European Information Society Technologies (IST) framework.
The 14th IST Summit focuses on bringing together experts from the worldwide wireless industry and research communities, with a special emphasis on providing a forum for European research initiatives. Recent advances in all fields related to mobile and wireless communications will be presented, thereby facilitating the identification of future trends, illumination of business opportunities, and discussion on the future roles of various bodies from academia, industry, and research centres in helping to form the vision of an ambient, truly intelligent communications environment.
Authors are invited to submit high-quality papers representing original results in all areas of wireless communications systems and networks, including their terrestrial, satellite and high altitude platform components. Submitted papers should not exceed five pages. Accepted papers will be published in conference proceedings; authors of selected best papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their papers for publication in a special issue of European Transactions on Telecommunications.
AREAS OF INTEREST Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Ad-hoc, BAN/PAN, and sensor networks - Antenna and RF subsystems - Applications and platforms - Broadcasting techniques (DxB and convergence) - Cellular systems - Coding and modulation - Cross-layer network design and optimisation - Detection and estimation - Dirty RF and hardware implementation - Diversity techniques and equalisation - DSP applications and implementation - Experimental systems and field trials - Fixed and nomadic wireless access - Hardware architectures - High altitude platforms - Information theory and fundamental limits - Localisation and context-based services - MIMO and multi-antenna systems - Mobile and wireless IP - Mobility management - Multicarrier CDMA and OFDM systems - Multiple access - Network architecture and deployment concepts - Next generation systems - Propagation and channel characterisation - Quality of service and scheduling - Radio resource, interference and spectrum management - Reconfigurability for systems and networks - Relaying and user cooperation - Routing - Satellite networks - Security, authentication and access control - Signal processing for wireless systems - Source coding - Space-time coding and processing - Synchronization - Turbo codes and iterative techniques - Ultra-wideband communications - WLAN and broadband systems
CALL FOR BOOTHS Part of the summit's programme is an exhibition. We offer exhibition space for research projects and companies working in the mobile and wireless domain; please indicate your interest in a booth to info@mobilesummit2005.org by January 31, 2005.
