Title: Intelligent Signal Sensing and Recognition Techniques Towards Physical-Layer 6G Security
Abstract:
The dawn of 6G wireless communication introduces a transformative era characterized by pervasive sensing and advanced intelligent identification, essential for ensuring physical security. This keynote speech highlights the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Deep Learning (DL) as pivotal in addressing the dynamic and complex challenges of 6G networks. We emphasize the role of AI in revolutionizing signal sensing and recognition. Our discussion centers on the application of these neural networks in enhancing signal detection, classification, and Specific Emitter Identification (SEI). By leveraging gradient-based optimization techniques, we demonstrate how ANNs can improve model and algorithm parameterization, leading to a data-driven approach that surpasses traditional rule based systems. This advancement is crucial in the physical layer of wireless communications, where intelligent signal recognition plays a key role in maintaining security and efficiency. We also explore the challenges faced by conventional model-based methods in the evolving landscape of 6G communication systems, which are marked by complex interference and uncertain channel conditions. DL emerges as a solution, offering innovative strategies for redesigning baseband module functionalities, including coding/decoding and detection processes. In conclusion, this keynote underscores the significance of integrating intelligent signal sensing and recognition with DL technologies in 6G networks. This approach not only enhances physical security but also paves the way for a more robust, efficient, and intelligent wireless communication ecosystem, capable of meeting the security demands of the future.

Title: Rule-Based Scheduling for MPARs performing Sensing and Communications
Abstract:
A Multifunction phased array radar (MPAR) is capable of performing sensing and communication by functionally grouping a phased array into tailored sub-apertures, each dedicated to a distinct task. Because of limited available resources, such as bandwidth, power aperture product, and time, it is important to properly allocate them to each sub-aperture. This lecture examines a rule-based task scheduling algorithm wherein communication (COM) looks are employed to fill the vacant intraslot time left by the radar tasks that are previously allocated, namely, volume and cued search, update and confirmation tracking. The allocation of the looks is performed to each time slot according to the task priority, but some of them (i.e., volume/cued/COM) are parallelized when the available bandwidth and power-aperture product (PAP) allow for it. Simulations conducted in some relevant scenarios demonstrate the validity of the proposed allocation strategy in terms of bandwidth utilization and time occupancy.

Title: Multi-channel iterative filtering and applications
Abstract:
In the last one or two decades, adaptive signal decomposition techniques have gained popularity for their broad applicability to almost all fields of science and technology. Empirical mode decomposition has been proposed to decompose the signal into amplitude-frequency modulated components (basis functions). Several methods have been proposed, followed by empirical mode decomposition for adaptive decomposition and to obtain improved signal representation. Empirical wavelet transform (EWT), Fourier-Bessel series expansion-based EWT (FBSE-EWT), iterative filtering, variational mode decomposition are a few popular techniques among adaptive decomposition techniques. Recent advancements in sensor technology make it easier to acquire signals from multiple sources simultaneously, which demands multivariate/multi-channel signal decomposition methods. The univariate iterative filtering has been extended for processing multichannel signals, which will be discussed in this talk. Also, applications of multivariate iterative filtering and machine learning in brain-computer interface and schizophrenia detection from multichannel electroencephalogram (EEG) signals will be presented. The obtained results show the effectiveness of the discussed multivariate/multi-channel adaptive signal decomposition techniques.
