- Traffic monitoring in urban transportation systems can be carried out based on vehicular sensor networks. Probe vehicles (PVs), such as taxis and buses, and floating cars (FCs), such as patrol cars for surveillance, can act as mobile sensors for sensing the urban traffic and send the reports to a traffic-monitoring center (TMC) for traffic estimation. In the TMC, sensing reports are aggregated to form a traffic matrix, which is used to extract traffic information. Since the sensing vehicles cannot cover all the roads all the time, the TMC needs to estimate the unsampled data in the traffic matrix. As this matrix can be approximated to be of low rank, matrix completion (MC) is an effective method to estimate the unsampled data. However, our previous analysis on the real traces of taxis in Shanghai reveals that MC methods do not work well due to the uneven samples of PVs, which is common in urban traffic. To exploit the intrinsic relationship between the unevenness of samples and traffic estimation error, we study the temporal and spatial entropies of samples and successfully define the important criterion, i.e., average entropy of the sampling process. A new sampling rule based on this relationship is proposed to improve the performance of estimation and monitoring.With the sampling rule, two new patrol algorithms are introduced to plan the paths of controllable FCs to proactively participate in trafficmonitoring. By utilizing the patrol algorithms for real-data-set analysis, the estimation error reduces from 35% to about 10%, compared with the random patrol or interpolation method in traffic estimation. Both the validity of the exploited relationship and the effectiveness of the proposed patrol control algorithms are demonstrated.

- Next generation cellular network is expected to provide the simultaneous high-accuracy localization and ultra-reliable communication services, even in high mobility scenarios. To that end, the novel orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation has been developed as a promising physical-layer transmission technique, evident by the outstanding performance in terms of robustness against time-frequency selective fading over the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) counterpart. However, when OTFS meets massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), the specific conditions, under which the delay-Doppler (DD) domain channel model holds, are not identified. In addition, the channel estimation and localization performance in such system is rarely studied. In this work, we target at these new challenges, and conduct comprehensive modelling, performance analysis, and algorithm design for massive MIMO-OTFS based simultaneous localization and communications. Specifically, we derive new channel models for the massive MIMO-OTFS system, which captures both time-frequency dispersion and spatial wideband effects. The specific conditions, under which the new models hold has been unveiled as well. Based on the new models, we establish the theoretical foundations for channel estimation and localization, by deriving the Cramer-Rao lower bounds of channel parameter and location estimation errors. Such bounds have been achieved with the newly designed low-complexity channel estimation and localization algorithms. Numerical simulations of the proposed framework with prevailing pulse functions are also conducted and the results validate the proposed designs and analysis. © 1983-2012 IEEE.

- Fifth generation (5G) mobile communication systems have entered the stage of commercial deployment, providing users with new services, improved user experiences as well as a host of novel opportunities to various industries. However, 5G still faces many challenges. To address these challenges, international industrial, academic, and standards organizations have commenced research on sixth generation (6G) wireless communication systems. A series of white papers and survey papers have been published, which aim to define 6G in terms of requirements, application scenarios, key technologies, etc. Although ITU-R has been working on the 6G vision and it is expected to reach a consensus on what 6G will be by mid-2023, the related global discussions are still wide open and the existing literature has identified numerous open issues. This paper first provides a comprehensive portrayal of the 6G vision, technical requirements, and application scenarios, covering the current common understanding of 6G. Then, a critical appraisal of the 6G network architecture and key technologies is presented. Furthermore, existing testbeds and advanced 6G verification platforms are detailed for the first time. In addition, future research directions and open challenges are identified to stimulate the on-going global debate. Finally, lessons learned to date concerning 6G networks are discussed.

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- The fifth generation (5G) wireless communication networks are being deployed worldwide from 2020 and more capabilities are in the process of being standardized, such as mass connectivity, ultra-reliability, and guaranteed low latency. However, 5G will not meet all requirements of the future in 2030 and beyond, and sixth generation (6G) wireless communication networks are expected to provide global coverage, enhanced spectral/energy/cost efficiency, better intelligence level and security, etc. To meet these requirements, 6G networks will rely on new enabling technologies, i.e., air interface and transmission technologies and novel network architecture, such as waveform design, multiple access, channel coding schemes, multi-antenna technologies, network slicing, cell-free architecture, and cloud/fog/edge computing. Our vision on 6G is that it will have four new paradigm shifts. First, to satisfy the requirement of global coverage, 6G will not be limited to terrestrial communication networks, which will need to be complemented with non-terrestrial networks such as satellite and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communication networks, thus achieving a space-air-ground-sea integrated communication network. Second, all spectra will be fully explored to further increase data rates and connection density, including the sub-6 GHz, millimeter wave (mmWave), terahertz (THz), and optical frequency bands. Third, facing the big datasets generated by the use of extremely heterogeneous networks, diverse communication scenarios, large numbers of antennas, wide bandwidths, and new service requirements, 6G networks will enable a new range of smart applications with the aid of artificial intelligence (AI) and big data technologies. Fourth, network security will have to be strengthened when developing 6G networks. This article provides a comprehensive survey of recent advances and future trends in these four aspects. Clearly, 6G with additional technical requirements beyond those of 5G will enable faster and further communications to the extent that the boundary between physical and cyber worlds disappears.
