Abstract
Talk #1 - Entering the Path towards Terabit/s Wireless Links
Wireless communications has been a hot area of technology advancement for the past two decades with data rates being driven by Moore's Law. As long as memory sizes increase, the demand for moving data at higher data rates of communications increases on the same scale. We want to analyze key challenge of leading edge 10Gbit/s wireless technology to get prepared for 100Gbit/s and 1Tbit/s data rates of tomorrow. Key boundary conditions are presented which have been learned by understanding leading edge wireless links of today to prepare for the Tbit/s technology of the year 2020.
Talk #2 - Roadways for Advancing Cellular Communications
Communication and interaction is a basic ingredient for life on earth. Hence, when electronics enabled communications on a wide scale, it has found a huge ready market which has dramatically changed life and societies, and has enabled economies to participate in the world-wide growth of prosperity. However, after the success of major step-changers, telephony, media broadcast, and the internet, a next step is soon to come – The Tactile Internet. Again, having untethered wireless access will be a key. So far communications enabled interactions with the user that are carried out via speakers and displays, plus the tactile entry via keyboards, touch screens/pads, and the mouse. However, soon latency reaction times can be reduced to the order of 1ms, from sensor(s) through the network to the actuator(s). This will allow us to take tactile control of our environment with new breakthrough applications in health care, sports, automotive, factory automation, education, smart grid, and many more areas. The impact on society will be phenomenal, generating another great economic impact for societies. The need for new electronics and new wireless communications interfaces will be a major driver for economic growth and prosperity. Today we must start understanding the basic requirements, develop system specifications, and identify challenges for which we need to develop breakthrough technology. New ways forward will be pointed out, which can be taken, to match the new level of specifications. As an example for a modulation technique which matches the needs, GFDM (Generalized Frequency Division Multiplexing) will be explained.
