As part of our online event, we are inviting early career researchers to submit their work. We are looking for a short presentation (6 slides maximum) on any of the topics below:
- Antennas and propagation
- Radio channels
- RF engineering
- Communications and sensing
- Wireless networking
- Remote sensing
- Positioning systems
- Telematics
- Intelligent transportation systems
Why you should get involved?
Networking across application domains in which researchers which do not normally interact with each other. Your presentation will be read by the discussion panel members and can potentially contribute to the discussions. Moreover, your presentation will be read in advance by participants, who may wish to discuss your work with you during or after the event, thereby providing you with independent feedback on your research and its context.
How to get involved
Upload your presentation by to our Engineering Community page The link will be circulated to all webinar registrants
You have the choice of uploading just your slides to the File area or a video with your narration to the Video area
Then start a conversation in our Discussions area, linking your uploaded presentation and inviting discussion
During the webinar, we’ll direct people to the Engineering Community discussion pages for them to get involved
The seminar will catalyse the cross-fertilisation of state-of the-art solutions and the sharing of challenges across industry and academic researchers working in a variety of transport sectors.
What is the Event?
The physical environments in which transport systems operate present a formidable set of challenges to the antennas and propagation research community, which include severe constraints on antenna size, weight, form factor and placement, in conjunction with a propagation environment which ranges from open space to highly confined tunnels and cuttings subject to fast-moving objects, and the highly variable presence of obscurants such as rain, spray, fog, dust, exhaust fumes, etc.
This webinar will bring together leading industry experts and academic researchers working on antennas and propagation in the context of V2X communications, autonomous vehicle sensors including automotive radar, rail communications, positioning systems for transport, UAV swarm communications, etc.
The event will highlight current developments and studies and provide a forum for discussion as to how some of the emerging antennas and propagation challenges may be met in the coming years. It will elucidate the challenges present in each transport modality area and present state-of-the-art solutions being investigated now and in the immediate future. Finally, it will generate opportunities for the cross-fertilisation of ideas across the different transport sectors
The topics to be covered by the colloquium will include propagation models, channel characterisation and enhancement techniques, MIMO, phased-array and multi-beam antenna technologies, in-situ antenna characterisation, mmWave antennas for mobile terminals, spectrum sharing issues, whitespace communications, etc.
