IEEE WISEE 2019

7th Annual IEEE International Conference on Wireless for Space and Extreme Environments 16 - 18 October 2019 Ottawa (ON), Canada Website: https://ieee.org/wisee Financially co-Sponsored by: IEEE Region-1 (Northeast USA), IEEE Region-7 (Canada), IEEE Council on Radio Frequency Identification (CRFID), IEEE Ottawa Section, and IET Ottawa Local Network. Technical Co-sponsor: IEEE Communications Society (COMSOC) ------------------------------ ------------------------------ -------------- Welcome to Ottawa ("The Silicon Valley North")! ------------------------------ ------------------------------ -------------- Ottawa is an important technology centre; recently, its 1800 companies employed approximately over 60K people. The concentration of companies in this industry earned the city the nickname of "Silicon Valley North". Most of these companies specialize in telecommunications, software development and environmental technology. ------------------------------ ---------------------- Call for Papers ------------------------------ ---------------------- Spaceflight involves critical sensing and communication in extreme environments such as planetary surfaces, space vehicles, and space habitats. These challenges overlap significantly with those found in many terrestrial examples of extreme environments such as extreme hot or cold locations, extreme high- or low-pressure environments, critical control loops in aircraft and nuclear power plants, high-speed rotating equipment, oil/gas pipelines and platforms, etc. All of these environments pose significant challenges for radio-frequency or optical wireless sensing and communication and will require the application of a broad range of state of the art technologies in order to generate reliable and cost effective solutions. Although challenges significantly depend on the environment, many sensing, communication, and statistical signal processing solutions can be applied to different scenarios, and researchers can be thus benefit from domain cross-fertilization.

This IEEE conference will bring together investigators from NASA, CSA, ESA, and other space agencies, along with aerospace and space defense industries and academic researchers, in an effort to understand and solve the emerging problems facing wireless sensing and communication in space and related extreme environments.

Full-length Research Papers (6 pages) and Poster abstracts (3 pages) are sought that address solution to problems in all areas of wireless sensing and communication in space and extreme environments related to spaceflight, including but not limited to the following: Artificial intelligence and deep learning in space Wireless sensors, systems, and networks Delay and disruption tolerant networks Network architectures, middleware integration, and data management Big data processing and data fusion techniques Wireless privacy, security and routing techniques Localization, detection, classification & tracking methods Antenna design and processing Integrated vehicle systems and robotics RFID devices and systems Propagation modeling and channel description Optical communication systems Availability, certification, and spaceflight qualification for wireless devices and systems Multi-carrier systems, spread spectrum techniques, cognitive radio networks, emerging technologies High speed, low latency, multi-stream data techniques (full-duplex, LTE, MIMO) Space cyber security
