WNCG Professors, Students and Postdoctoral Researchers Sweep GLOBECOM 2015 Paper Awards

IEEE GLOBECOM is one of two flagship conferences of the IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc), together with IEEE ICC. Each year the conference attracts about 3,000 submitted scientific papers and dozens of proposals for industry events. A technical program committee of more than 1,500 experts provides more than 10,000 reviews, and from this a small fraction of the submitted papers are accepted for publication and presentation at the conference.

Texas Wireless Summit 2015 Explores the View to 5G

Texas Wireless Summit (TWS) 2015 explored next generation wireless networks in a day-long event focused on The View to 5G: From Applications to the Air Interface. The 13th annual TWS provided a forum on emerging technology and business models for industry leaders and academics. Hosted by WNCG, TWS offered direct access to cutting-edge research and innovations from industry leaders, investors, academics and startups.

FCC Chairman Meets Technology Thought-Leaders in Austin

 

This April, WNCG Prof. Jeffrey Andrews and other experts met with FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler to discuss spectrum innovation. The discussion between Wheeler and Andrews explored how current research can inform FCC and U.S. spectrum policies and research investments for a still-undefined 5G cellular standard.

What multislope path loss models tell us about the fundamental limits of wireless network densification in 5G and beyond

A vast majority of the increased mobile data throughput has been enabled by ever-increasing densification, i.e. adding more base stations and access points that have a wired backhaul connection.  This trend is set to continue for the next decade at least, primarily through the provisioning of small cells such as pico and femtocells.  What if we reached a point where adding more infrastructure did not allow increased wireless network throughput?  This would be comparable to the impending end of "Moore's Law"; a cataclysmic event having far-reaching consequences.

WNCG Alum Chun-Hung Liu wins IEEE Best Paper Award

Recent WNCG Alumnus Prof. Chun-Hung Liu won the Best Paper award at the 2014 IEEE Workshop on Heterogeneous and Small Cell Networks, held in conjunction with IEEE Globecom in Austin, Texas.   His paper was entitled "Adaptive Downlink CoMP in Heterogeneous Cellular Networks with Imperfect Overhead Messaging”, which is on utilizing several base stations to coordinate their transmissions to boost signal power and reduce other-cell interference, while having imperfect and limited connections between them. Prof. Liu was the sole author.
 

WNCG Welcomes IEEE Globecom 2014

IEEE GLOBECOM is one of two flagship conferences of the IEEE Communications Society, together with IEEE ICC. Each year the conference attracts about 3000 submitted scientific papers. A technical program committee of more than 1,500 experts provides more than 10,000 reviews, and from this a small fraction of the submitted papers are accepted for publication and presentation at the conference. The conference meets once a year in North America and attracts roughly 2000 leading scientists and researchers and industry leaders from all around the world.
