Submit via easychair and select Special Session 3
To address the increasing demand for global coverage in applications, sixth-generation (6G) wireless technology will extend beyond conventional terrestrial communication systems. It will, instead, rely on non-terrestrial components such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and satellites to establish a space-air-ground integrated network (SAGIN). UAV-assisted communication, as a crucial element of SAGIN, has rapidly advanced due to its significant advantages, including on-demand deployment, highly controllable mobility, and cost efficiency. However, designing and evaluating UAV communication systems effectively requires a deep understanding of realistic propagation channel models. These models serve to approximate the propagation characteristics between transmitters and receivers. Therefore, it is vital to study the channel characteristics of air-to-ground communications in UAV wireless channels to ensure optimal system performance.
This workshop will bring leading researchers and developers from both industry and academia together to present their latest research on UAV wireless channel models.
