Workshop on Wake-Up radio at EWSN 2020 conference

AWAKE: 1st Workshop on Wake-Up radio technologies for next generation wireless communications

In conjunction with EWSN 2020, Lyon France, February 17, 2020

We are glad to organize the first workshop on Wake-Up radio. You will find below the call for paper.

Lowering energy consumption is one of the most pursued goals of next generation wireless communication to ensure long-term applications. In recent years, wake-up radio has emerged, enabling pure asynchronous wireless communication that eliminates energy waste due to idle listening. These devices allow continuous channel monitoring while consuming orders of magnitude less power than traditional transceivers. On the one hand, many efforts are made to design wake-up radio circuit with low power consumption and low sensitivity. On the other hand, this technology changes network paradigm as dedicated access and network protocols should be designed.

The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers both from academia and industry to exchange and share their experiences and research results related to wake-up radio emerging technology.

Topics of interest

Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to:

  • Wake-Up radio circuit and architecture design
  • Coding, modulation and signal processing for Wake-Up radio
  • Heterogeneous communication (or Multi-transceiver) and protocols
  • MAC protocol leveraging Wake-up radio
  • Cross-layer design for Wake-Up radio
  • Communication and networking for wireless systems using Wake-Up radio
  • Testbeds and experimentations using wake-up radio
  • Use-case and applications leveraging Wake-up radio
  • Wake-up radio in standardization (IEEE 802.11ba, 4G, 5G, …)
