Wireless communication continues to be a central driver for many innovations in technologies and in applications related to the »Internet of Everything« (IoE) and the »Information at Your Fingertip«.

Many trends can be observed:

  • Wireless communication is getting increasingly open: from tooling over the realm of maker-scenes and local communication gadgets to the world of professional cellular communications: More and more open elements are around, like Open SDR, LoRaWAN stacks, OpenThread, OpenWrt, and finally also Open RAN …
  • Wireless communication is putting more and more emphasis on scalability and interference stability. Scalability is achieved by a broad variety of technologies like micro- and nano-cells, advanced coding schemes, massive MIMO, Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA), narrow-band transmission, ultra-wide band, just to name a few. Other technologies help with interference stability, like adaptive cognitive radio techniques and more and more advanced frequency hopping schemes.
  • Where in the past, private wireless networks could be found only in WPAN and WLAN solutions, also this has significantly changed. Not only private LPWAN networks for LoRaWAN or mioty are around, but also campus networks allow private cellular networks.
  • Efficiency of wireless systems and circuits is also increasing, with regard to energy, flexibility, bandwidth, and – above all – cost. Driven by most recent semiconductor technologies, software defined radio, and huge production volumes.
  • Wireless communication continues to be one of the drivers for advances in microelectronics and semiconductors. At the same time, it is also benefitting significantly from these advances.
  • And – of course – also wireless systems become intelligent. From cognitive radio over adaptive data rate to anomaly detection and resource planning, artificial intelligence entries the scene also here.

So, there are interesting trends to observe, new truth to be found, and novel applications to be developed! The 19th Wireless Congress: Systems and Applications will take place in Munich on November 16th and 17th, 2022. Co-located with electronica, it is a platform that will bring together application-oriented researchers, product developers, managers, and innovators. In short: open and innovative people.

The organizers of the Wireless CongressElektronik, Messe München, ZVEI – and the program committee invite you to submit proposals for topics on current developments and trends, which can be elaborated in lectures, training courses or discussion panels via the online portal on the congress website www.wireless-congress.com by May 20, 2022.
