IEEE Globecom 2024 Workshop on 10th Workshop on Integrated Sensing and Communications for Edge Sensing Intelligence

2024 Cape Town, South Africa

CALL FOR PAPERS

As the next generation of mobile communication systems, the sixth generation (6G) is poised to actualize the profound fusion of human interactions with interconnected devices, leading the communication field to a new era of the Internet of Everything (IoE). Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) has been recognized by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) as one of the six application scenarios for IMT-2030 (6G). Vertical scenarios in 6G require extremely high precision sensing and ultra-low latency response, leading to the emergence of a new edge sensing intelligence paradigm that integrates wireless sensing, communication, computing, and artificial intelligence (AI) at the network edge.

The advent of ISAC makes sensing an essential component of a new communication network. By embedding sensors or sensing capability into cellular and wireless networks, ISAC effectively breaks the bottleneck of limited data collection and addresses the constraints inherent in traditional edge networks. Continuous real-time sensory data collection during communications presents a valuable opportunity for adaptive network management in face of uncertainty, thereby creating native network intelligence. Edge AI is pivotal in amplifying wireless sensing capabilities across the physical, network, and application layers. Edge sensing intelligence emerged as the integration of edge AI and wireless sensing at the edge of the network to expedite data processing and decision-making while fostering mutual benefit between the two functions. Edge sensing is expected to mitigate data transfer latency, enhance data privacy and security, and reduce computation costs. Edge sensing intelligence enables not only direct data collection at the network’s edge but also wireless transmission and intelligent processing.

Based on these advantages, edge sensing intelligence will show extensive potential in ISAC. Although this technology has attracted wide attention from both academia and industry, there are still many unresolved problems that need to be further studied. This workshop aims to unite researchers from academia and industry to delve into the latest breakthroughs and application prospects in ISAC for edge sensing intelligence, thereby promoting the development of ISAC.
