  • Network Dynamics-Aware Resource Management for Mobile Edge Computing

    Room: 460, Bldg: Engineering, ENG460 , 245 Church Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5B 2K3, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/409530

    The sixth-generation (6G) communication networks are anticipated to enable a variety of innovative applications and provide extreme connectivity for mobile devices. To meet the evolving service demands in highly dynamic network environments, mobile edge computing (MEC) and artificial intelligence (AI) will be two pivotal technologies in 6G. MEC extends computing and storage capabilities within radio access networks, coping with the increasing computing demands from mobile users. Meanwhile, AI facilitates intelligent resource management by enabling network entities to learn and build knowledge about network dynamics. In this talk, we will explore AI-assisted resource management for MEC-enabled networks, addressing the computing challenges caused by device mobility and heterogeneity. We will introduce two AI-assisted resource management approaches, each tailored to support a representative MEC use case: the Internet of Vehicles and mobile virtual reality video streaming. Finally, we will outline a future research plan focused on holistic network virtualization through digital twin technologies, aimed at further enhancing the flexibility and efficiency of AI-assisted network management towards 6G.

  • Mid-infrared Transmitter and Receiver for Free Space Optical SatCom

    Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/408858

    Mid-infrared Transmitter and Receiver for Free Space Optical SatCom Abstract - In this talk, we review efforts of the Xu research group at McMaster to implement a C-band to mid-infrared (3.4-3.5 micron) transmitter and receiver pair. This is accomplished via difference frequency generation and sum frequency generation for the transmitter and receiver modules, respectively. We will go over professional packaging progress, project outcomes, and discuss the significant improvement in conversion efficiency over the reported literature thanks to the intracavity design. Additionally, a link budget model for the C-band and mid-infrared are compared to evaluate pros and cons of potentially adopting mid-infrared for satellite communications, as well as any adjacent applications for the modules. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Émetteur et récepteur infrarouge moyen pour SatCom optique en espace libre Résumé - Dans cet exposé, nous passons en revue les efforts du groupe de recherche Xu à McMaster pour mettre en œuvre une paire émetteur et récepteur en bande C vers l'infrarouge moyen (3,4-3,5 microns). Ceci est accompli via la génération de fréquence différentielle et la génération de fréquence somme pour les modules émetteur et récepteur, respectivement. Nous passerons en revue les progrès de l'emballage professionnel, les résultats du projet et discuterons de l'amélioration significative de l'efficacité de conversion par rapport à la littérature rapportée grâce à la conception intracavité. De plus, un modèle de bilan de liaison pour la bande C et l'infrarouge moyen est comparé pour évaluer les avantages et les inconvénients de l'adoption potentielle de l'infrarouge moyen pour les communications par satellite, ainsi que de toute application adjacente pour les modules.
