1st International Workshop on Broadband Wireless Internet and Next
Generation Networks Access (BWINA 2013), in conjunction with AINA 2013,
Barcelona, Spain, March 25-28, 2013

Purpose and Scope:
In the recent years, the advent of new and powerful Broadband Wireless
Access (BWA) technologies has open the path to a clear steep growth in
research interests in wireless mobile communication systems as an
inexpensive and promising means for ubiquitous communications, leading to
a fundamental change in Internet access. These emerging technologies have
a great potential for ubiquitous wireless network access anywhere and
anytime, with the goal to deliver telecommunication services, including
wireless services over the Internet and the Next Generation Networks.
However, due to the heterogeneous nature of networks, devices and
services, ubiquitous multi-hop wireless access technologies introduce new
research challenges in all areas of network, including protocol stack,
security, interoperability, deployment, architectures, performance, to
name a few. This workshop provides an international forum for the research
community in the above-mentioned research areas. It will cover various
aspects of BWA technologies, including but not limited to:
Architectures, technologies, protocols for BWA
Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks
IMT-Advanced Networks
Self-configuring Cellular Networks
Medium Access Control and QoS
Capacity Planning and Traffic Engineering
Interference Management (Coordination, Mitigation, Randomization)
Security and Privacy issues
Service Level Agreements
Broad- and Multicast Support in BWA networks
Characterization, Modeling of BWA Traffic, Mobility and Channels
Modulation, Coding and Antennas (MIMO)
Energy-awareness and Efficiency of BWA Technologies
Scalability and Reliability Issues
BWA Technologies such as 802.16x, 802.20, UMTS, etc, and their
Extensions
Mesh and Relay Networks (IEEE 802.11s, IEEE 802.16j, etc.)
Wireless Network Management
Cognitive Radio and Dynamic Spectrum Access
Cooperative Networks, Repeaters and Relaying
Wireless Mesh Networks
QoS in Mobile and BWA Networks
Optical Wireless Access Networks
Vertical and Horizontal Integration

Micro and Macro Mobility Management
3G/4G Wireless Technologies
Experimental Evaluation of Cross-Layer Interactions
Cross-Layer Interactions and Optimization Approaches
Wireless Next Generation Networks Architectures and Trends
BWA Implementations in Next Generation Networks
Large-scale and Heterogeneous BWA Evaluations
Multi-Antenna Technologies (MIMO, Beamforming, Antenna Selection,
etc)
Design and Evaluation of Test-beds and Field Trails
Applications and Multimedia Support (e.g. Vehicle-2-X
Communications)
