Call for Papers for Communication Theory Symposium

Transcription

1 Call for Papers for Communication Theory Symposium Scope and Motivation: The Communication Theory Symposium covers all aspects related to communication theory, with a focus on topics related to fundamental issues in design and analysis of wireless/wired communication systems. The symposium welcomes original papers in the general area of communication theory, addressing challenging research problems relevant for the future communication systems. High quality papers reporting on applications of communications theory from both industry and academia are encouraged. Main Topics of Interest: To ensure complete coverage of the advances in communication theory for the current and future systems, the Communication Theory Symposium cordially invites original contributions in, but not limited to, the following topical areas: Modulation and Coding CDMA and Spread Spectrum Channel Estimation and Synchronization Coding Theory and Practice Communication Theory Aspects of Networking Compressed Sensing Theoretical Aspects of Cognitive Radio and Cognitive Networking Cooperative Communications Theory of Communication Protocols Detection and Estimation Theory Distributed Coding and Processing Diversity and Fading Dynamic Spectrum Management Feedback in Communication Systems Theory of Fiber Optical Communications and Free-Space Optical Communications Heterogeneous Networks Capacity of Communication Channels Interference Management, Cancellation, Alignment, and Avoidance Iterative Techniques, Detection and Decoding
