Track 1: Novel ICT 5G/6G Technologies and Drones for Critical Operations and Disaster Management

Track Chair




Scope


We are facing an era in which the Internet connectivity is hampered by disasters, such as earthquakes, volcano eruptions, flooding, arson attacks of cellular towers, and war attacks of electricity and/or communication networks. The legacy communications networks are not designed to face such unexpected events, which result, in most of cases in a complete loss of coverage for the mobile users in the damaged areas. The goal of this track is therefore to face such issue, and to investigate the possibility of quicky & effectively react to disaster events, by introducing proper disaster management for 5G/6G networks, at all levels – from architectural to functional ones.

The 5G/6G for Disaster Management track seeks original contributions in the following topical areas, plus others that are not explicitly listed but are closely related:
