cloudbasestation 2012 - International Workshop on Cloud Base-Station and Cloud Base-Station and Large-Scale Cooperative Communications
Topics/Call fo Papers
International Workshop on Cloud Base-Station and Cloud Base-Station and Large-Scale Cooperative Communications ? in conjunction with the IEEE GLOBECOM2012 Conference
Scope and Topics
Cloud computing is going to revolutionize the next-generation radio access network, enabling the cloud base station architecture. With cloud computing, all of the conventional baseband and higher layer processing is moved to a computational cloud. In a sense, the cloud base station architecture creates a massive network of distributed antennas with the potential for rapid coordination. Leveraging the powerful computation capabilities of cloud computing, large-scale cooperative communications with high computational complexity becomes feasible in baseband because the backhaul network is effectively eliminated. The cloud base station architecture enables interference aware-scheduling and simplifies historically challenging cellular problems like handoff. This workshop is to provide a platform for both industry and academia to exchange views and technology in the area. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
l Architectural considerations for the cloud base station including the general hardware platform, smart RF/IF, and smart signal compression
l Cloud computing for radio access network, virtualized OS and software, security issues
l Practical techniques to optimize the access network including synchronization, anti-jitter, propagation delay
l Scheduling and resource allocation including users and computational resources
l Large scale cooperative communication: high-order precoding, user pairing, joint transmission, joint receiver techniques
l Limited feedback including multicell channel state information and adaptive algorithms
l Transmit and receiver algorithms optimized for distributed implementation
