Description

This Special Session will cover the overlapping topics researched within the context of three SNS JU Phase I projects: TIMES (http://times6g.eu/), TERRAMETA (https://terrameta-project.eu/), and 6G-SHINE (https://6gshine.eu/).

In particular, these topics comprise:

• THz communications
• Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces
• Mesh networks for high frequency communications
• Wireless subnetworks
• Short range, low-power radio cells
• Integrated sensing and communications
• Channel modelling
• Hardware for high frequency communications
• Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) networks
• Communications in challenging/extreme propagation environments

This Special Session will aim at addressing the above topics in the format of: i) invited talks given by the participants in the projects; ii) a panel discussion. The invited speakers and panelists of diverse backgrounds (industry, academia, standardization) will aim at providing different perspectives on the topics related to enabling high performance communication in high frequencies and with reconfigurable intelligent surfaces. Beyond the research challenges, the Session will also discuss how the outputs of research projects can be effectively transferred to standards, paving the way to commercialization of the developed technologies.
