Wi-UAV 2013
4th Int. IEEE Workshop on Wireless Networking and Control for Unmanned
Autonomous Vehicles: Architectures, Protocols and Applications
in Conjunction with IEEE GLOBECOM 2013
Atlanta, Georgia, USA
WORKSHOP DATE: DECEMBER 09, 2013
PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE: JUNE 25, 2013
The 4th International IEEE workshop on Wireless Networking and Control for
Unmanned Autonomous Vehicles (Wi-UAV 2013, www.wi-uav.org), co-located with
the IEEE International Conference on Global Communications (GLOBECOM 2013),
will be held in Atlanta, Georgia, USA on December 09, 2013.
You are kindly invited to submit your research paper to this workshop and
discuss current innovative technological advances in the area of networking
and control solutions for unmanned autonomous systems.
The deadline for submission via the EDAS system is: June 25, 2013
(http://edas.info/N14919).
Aims and Scope:
Unmanned autonomous systems are increasingly used in a large number of
contexts to support humans in dangerous and difficult-to-reach environments:
e.g. ground-based robotics, aerial sensor systems, space and underwater
applications. In order to fulfill particularly challenging tasks, visionary
scenarios foresee unmanned vehicles to be organized in networked teams and
even swarms. The corresponding wireless networks need to provide highly
reliable and delay-tolerant control links for the management of the behavior
of the unmanned vehicles as well as data links to transfer telemetry and
sensor data. At the same time, unmanned vehicles offer the capability to
provide ad-hoc wireless networks, for example to facilitate temporary hot
spots and compensate network outages in case of public events and
emergencies. The focus of the workshop will be solely based on projects and
research aiming at civilian applications.
Topics:
- Communication architectures and protocols for unmanned autonomous vehicles
- Communication in challenging environments: air, underwater, etc.,
indoor/outdoor
- Ad-hoc networking, routing, handover and meshing
- Cooperation of ground, aerial and maritime unmanned vehicles
- Localization and vision based sense-and-avoid
- Interfaces and cross platform communication
- Agent based mobility, multi-platform control, cognitive capabilities and
swarming
- Distributed control and path planning of unmanned vehicles
- Communication and system design
- Mini / Micro UAVs and enhanced Health Management
- Use of civilian networks for UVs communication
- Mission control centers and backend communication
- Advances in remote sensing: miniaturization, low-weight and energy
efficient communication
- QoS mechanisms and performance evaluation
- Results from prototypes, test-beds and demonstrations
Submission Guidelines and Publication:
GLOBECOM workshops accept only original, previously unpublished papers.
Concurrent submission to GLOBECOM and other conferences or journals is not
allowed. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit papers in IEEE
conference style up to 5 pages through EDAS submission system
(http://edas.info/N14919), but one additional page is allowed with
additional publication fee.
Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE digital library (IEEE Xplore).
An accepted paper must be registered before the registration deadline. An
accepted paper must be presented at the workshop. Failure to register before
the deadline will result in automatic withdrawal of the paper from the
workshop proceedings and the program. GLOBECOM will remove an accepted and
registered but not presented paper from the IEEE digital library.
Important Dates:
Submission due: June 25, 2013 (Tuesday)
Decision notification due: September 01, 2013 (Sunday)
Camera-ready and registration due: October 01, 2013 (Tuesday)
