【講座信息】

  互聯網和通信技術(ICT)給當今人類生活的方方面面帶來的變革已無需多言。眾所周知，信息的迅速傳播時刻改變著人類生活中諸如經濟、教育、衛生等各個領域。在此背景下，第五代(5G)無線通信系統(WCSs)的標準化工作目前已經完成，而5G網絡也已處于早期部署階段，同時第六代(6G)無線通信系統的研究愿景與規劃正在緊鑼密鼓的啟動當中。6G預計將成為無線通信和網絡的下一個研究重點，旨在提供新的高級通信服務，以滿足未來21世紀30年代的超連接需求。此外，城市化人口是前幾代無線通信系統演進過程中的主要受益者，并且在最近通過的有望于2030年實現的聯合國可持續發展目標的推動下，6G網絡預計將給更多大眾群體帶來更好的ICT體驗。實際上，世界上仍有近40億人仍未體驗到這些優勢，這些人仍然處于“未連接或連接不足”的狀態，他們正在經歷著這樣的“數字化代溝”，而這里創造“數字化代溝”這一術語正是為強調世界上的許多地方仍缺乏ICT基礎設施的事實。在這種背景下，本次演講旨在：1）繪制一個6G宏偉藍圖；2）為超5G時代研究提供指南；3）回顧近期提出的一些解決方案，以便能在覆蓋區域提供高速連接，為遙遠地區的發展提供服務并做出貢獻。

The role of Internet and Communication Technology (ICT) in bringing about a revolution in almost all aspects of human life needs no introduction. It is indeed a well-known fact that the transmission of the information at a rapid pace has transformed all spheres of human life such as economy, education, and health to name a few. In this context, and as the standardization of the fifth generation (5G) of wireless communication systems (WCSs) has been completed, and 5G networks are in their early stage of deployment, the research visioning and planning of the sixth generation (6G) of WCSs are being initiated. 6G is expected to be the next focus in wireless communication and networking and aim to provide new superior communication services to meet the future hyper-connectivity demands in the 2030s. In addition, keeping in mind that urbanized populations have been the major beneficiary of the advances offered by the previous generations of WCSs and motivated by the recently adopted united nations sustainability development goals intended to be achieved by the year 2030, 6G networks are anticipated to democratize the benefits of ICT. Indeed these advantages are still not experienced by almost 4 billion people in the world who are still “unconnected or under-connected” and who suffer as such from the “digital divide”, a term coined in order to emphasize the lack of ICT infrastructure in many parts of the world. Given this background, this talk aims to (i) provide an envisioned picture of 6G, (ii) serve as a research guideline in the beyond 5G era, and (iii) go over the recently proposed solutions to provide high-speed connectivity in under-covered areas to serve and contribute to the development of far-flung regions.
