*IEEE WCNEE 2021*5th International Workshop on Wireless Communications and Networking in Extreme Environments

http://wcnee.eng.fau.edu/

July 14, 2021-July 16, 2021, VIRTUAL EVENT

*Call for Papers *

The goal of WNCEE, now in its 5th edition, is to bring together researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry working on algorithms, architectures, protocols, prototypes, testbeds, and systems for wireless communications and networking in extreme environments with a focus on underwater, underground, intrabody, aerial and rural wireless networks. WCNEE serves as a forum for sharing experiences, research findings and technical presentations from the physical all the way to the application layer with a focus on bridging the gaps between theory, algorithms, prototypes, testbeds, demonstration and production networks. Authors are invited to submit previously unpublished papers to this workshop.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

- AI/ML applied to wireless systems in extreme environments - AI/ML for control and management of networks of networks with heterogeneous requirements in extreme environments (underwater, underground, aerial, intrabody, space, rural) - Adversarial learning and operation of autonomous wireless systems in challenging/contested communication environments - Spectrum sharing and coexistence in congested environments - Security and privacy mechanisms for data sharing in extreme environments - Hardware-reduced software-defined radios - Low-power wireless systems - Ad-hoc infrastructure-less cross-layer networking, routing, handover and meshing - RF/Acoustic/Optical/Visible-light communication systems - Autonomously networked mobile or static (implantable in a living tissue or in a reservoir) communications system designs - Cooperation of robotic unmanned vehicles with multi-domain (sea-land-air) capabilities - Self-driving self-sustainable wireless networks - Distributed mobile multi-function wireless systems for joint communications and sensing in extreme environments - Localization, detection, classification and tracking methods in GPS-denied environments - Energy harvesting and wireless power transfer systems - Experimental testbeds and measurements from prototypes and real-world wireless (underwater, aerial, intra-body, underground, rural, space) network deployments - Signal propagation and attenuation models

*Important Dates* Paper Submission Deadline: May 21, 2021 Acceptance Notification : June 11, 2021 Camera-ready Paper Deadline: June 18, 2021 Workshop Date: July 14–16, 2021 (Particular 1-day will be announced soon)
