It is a great honor and privilege for me to serve as the President of IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc) in 2022–2023. IEEE ComSoc is a global professional organization that has been creating cutting-edge communications and networking ...

Fifth generation (5G) and beyond 5G (B5G) wireless communications will provide services under different promising usage scenarios and applications including enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), high-reliability low-latency communications (HRLLC), and massive ...

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) aided wireless communications promise to provide high-speed cost-effective wireless connectivity without needing fixed infrastructure coverage. They are a key technology enabler for sixth generation (6G) wireless networks, ...

In this article, a proof-of-concept study on the use of a hybrid design technique to reduce the number of phase shifters of a beam-scanning reflectarray (RA) is presented. An extended hemispherical lens antenna with feeds inspired by the retrodirective ...

Beyond-5G wireless systems require significant improvement to enable the Internet of Everything, offering ultra-reliability, ultra-low-latency and high data-rates for holographic telepresence, immersive augmented and virtual reality, and cyber-physical ...

The incoming 5G and beyond 5G wireless communications provide unprecedented ultra-high-speed transmission data rates. This is enabled by driving the carrier frequency up to millimeter-wave (mmWave) and terahertz (THz) bands and developing advanced ...

This article summarizes the recently discovered opportunities of geodesic lenses for producing high-performing antennas for 5G/6G communications. First, we explain the operation of these lenses based on Geometrical Optics with rays that follow “the ...

To optimize the reception and transmission in real-time changing links, phased array antennas have been increasingly investigated and applied in satellite applications. The phased array antenna technology intelligently combines multiple individual antenna ...

Autonomous vehicle is being developed for widespread deployment. Its reliability and safety are critically dependent on advanced wireless technologies, e.g., vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication. The frontend of a V2X system needs an antenna module ...

Networks are continuously evolving with the provisions of new communication capabilities and services; while 5G is being deployed, several research activities are starting to define the next big step in mobile technology, 6G, with the expectation for ...

5G-enabled Tactile Internet (TI) will rely on sensors, actuators, and ultra-reliable and ultralow latency communication for providing haptic human-machine interaction services. However, stringent requirements in terms of high reliability and sub-...

One popular subject of 6G research is the millimeter wave and Tera Hertz frequency bands for which there is both enthusiasm and pessimism. The expected adoption of high bands in 6G has been known to cause two major problems for deployment: a reduced ...

Internet of Everything (IoE) applications such as haptics, human-computer interaction, and extended reality, using the sixth-generation (6G) of wireless systems have diverse requirements in terms of latency, reliability, data rate, and user-defined ...

In order to support the plethora of the new, pending, transformative use-cases, 6G systems will need to be capable of providing not only high-throughput but also ultra-massive device connectivity. In this direction, 6G systems will need to fully exploit ...

The Design and implementation of Devices, Circuits, and Systems Series publishes original articles that cover a broad range of topics and application areas in telecommunication devices, circuits, and systems advances and developments.

Most existing network communication systems, such as the Internet, are built around the TCP/IP protocol stack. However, TCP/IP cannot effectively support the upcoming network communication systems with more wireless communication links and higher ...

COVID-19 is a highly contagious coronavirus that has caused traumatic global havoc. By September 14, 2021, there were 224+ million confirmed cases and 4.6+ million fatalities world-wide [1]. Internet of Things (IoT)-based quarantine strategies effectively ...

Brain-inspired approaches can efficiently analyze the activities of biological neural networks and solve computationally hard problems with energy efficiencies unattainable with von Neumann architectures, indicating a significant improvement in the ...
