capability of entities for transportation and aerospace. The
tutorial delves into how this collaborative approach cansignificantly benefit smart vehicles, UAVs, and satellites. Key
topics covered in the tutorial may include edge computing
architectures, communication protocols, and machine learningalgorithms tailored for applications for both terrestrial and nonterrestrial scenarios. A specific attention will be given to novel
Distributed Learning paradigms that allows to better coper withthe distributed scenario individuated by the ground, aerial, andsatellite components, paving the way toward Network-for-AI
paradigms.
Participants are likely to gain insights into optimizing
resource allocation, enhancing situational awareness, andimproving overall performance through the implementation ofcollaborative intelligence at the edge. The event explores theapplication of collaborative intelligence, which involves
distributed processing and decision-making among devices atthe edge of a network. The tutorial will consider both theoretical2024 99th IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference

more complex and heterogeneous due to higher transmission
frequencies, massive internet-of-things (IoT) devices in airspace-ground networks, and ultra-dense access points.
Subsequently, the wireless channel coherence time is reducing
which necessitates faster and proactive resource management.
Machine learning (ML), specifically deep learning, has shownpromises to overcome those challenges by training neuralnetworks (NNs) in an offline manner. Once trained, the time

complexity of obtaining network resource allocation variablesfrom the NNs become significantly lower than the traditional
optimization-based approaches. In the sequel, this tutorial will
first provide an overview of state-of-the-art machine learning
solutions that can reduce the time complexity of resource
allocation in future wireless networks. As well, the aspects
related to both “ML-assisted wireless solutions” and “Wirelessenabled ML services” will be covered. We will elaborate on thefundamental concepts, challenges, and applications related ofsupervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning for 6G
network resource allocation. Next, the tutorial will delve into thedeep unsupervised learning methods for network resource
allocation problems with non-linear and non-convex constraints.
The use of implicit layers and differentiable projection methods
will be discussed. The tutorial will then focus on case-studies
demonstrating the applications of reinforcement learning in
vehicular networks, IoT, and non-terrestrial networks (NTNs).
Finally, the tutorial will cover the significance of the concepts
related to centralized and distributed learning as well as ‘overthe-air’ federated Learning in 6G and beyond. The tutorial willconclude by pointing out the existing research gaps in the
successful roll-out of ML-enabled resource allocation andhighlight potential research directions.

University of Sharjah; Robert-Jeron Reifert, Ruhr University
Bochum, Germany
This tutorial is intended to provide the audience with a broad
vision of multi-tier computing for the sixth generation (6G) of
wireless communication networks by emphasizing on theirmodeling, resource allocation challenges, and distributed
management schemes. To best promote a fair digital service, thetutorial starts from traditional cloud-radio access networks (CRANs), and then extends to multi-cloud radio access networks(MC-RANs), which already calls for a decentralized
optimization approach given the inter-cloud communication
limits. In an effort to achieve a digitally sustainable, energy
efficient communication landscape, the tutorial further
highlights that, through leveraging the power of the central cloud(CC), the close proximity of edge computers (ECs) to themarginalized areas, and the flexibility of uncrewed aerial
vehicles (UAVs), a UAVaided hybrid CC/MEC architecture
promises to handle the stringent latency and computation
requirements of future network applications, e.g., extended
reality (XR). The tutorial, in particular, focuses on physical layer
resource allocation, advanced multiple access schemes, and user
cooperation by harvesting the joint gains of cloud and mobile
edge computing under different setups. In each of the tutorial
parts, we introduce new concepts to describe the corresponding
system models, performance-enhancing methodologies, andtechniques from optimization theory for wireless resource
management. Backed up by numerical simulations, we illustrate
the performance of the proposed architectures in terms ofvarious metrics, namely, sum-rate, energy efficiency, fairness,scalability, and runtime. The tutorial seeks to convey the visionof well-managed resource allocation via multi-tier computing asa crucial factor towards serving future decentralized 6G
applications.

Extremely large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XLMIMO) is a promising technology for the sixth-generation (6G)
mobile communication networks. By significantly boost- ing theantenna number or size to at least an order of magnitude beyond
current massive MIMO systems, XL-MIMO is expected tounprecedentedly enhance the spectral efficiency and spatial
resolution for wireless communication. The evolution frommassive MIMO to XL-MIMO is not simply an increase in thearray size, but faces new design challenges, in terms of nearfield channel modelling, performance analysis, channel
estimation, sensing, and practical implementation, which havenot been well studied in the existing literature. In this tutorial,
we will give a comprehensive tutorial overview on near-field
XL-MIMO communication and sensing, aiming to provide
useful guidance for tackling the above challenges. To this end,
we will first introduce the basic near-field modelling for XLMIMO, by considering the new characteristics of non-uniform

channel estimation, and delay alignment modulation (DAM)
transmission. On the other hand, for near-field XL-MIMO

T7: On the Road to Quantum Communications
Lajos Hanzo, Univeristy of Southampton
Moore’s laws has indeed prevailed since he outlined his
empirical rule-of-thumb in 1965, but based on this trend thescale of integration is set to depart from classical physics,
entering nano-scale integration, where the postulates of quantum
physics have to be obeyed. The quest for quantum-domain
communication solutions was inspired by Feynman’s
revolutionary idea in 1985: particles such as photons or electrons
might be relied upon for encoding, processing and delivering
information. Hence in the light of these trends it is extremely
timely to build an interdisciplinary momentum in the area of
quantum communications, where there is an abundance of open
problems for a broad community to solve collaboratively. In thisworkshop-style interactive presentation we will address thefollowing issues:
We commence by highlighting the nature of the quantum
channel, followed by techniques of mitigating the effects ofquantum decoherence using quantum codes.
Then we bridge the subject areas of large-scale search
problems in wireless communications and exploit the benefits ofquantum search algorithms in multi-user detection, in jointchannel estimation and data detection, localization and inrouting problems of networking, for example.
We survey advances in quantum key distribution networks.

we will present the latest work on deep learning enabledsemantic communications for text, speech, and imagetransmission. By employing a semantic encoder and channel
encoder and dealing with their jointly design, the semantic
communication system could achieve a significant performance
improvement in terms of semantic information exchange.

Cell-free Massive MIMO for Next Generation Multiple Access
Michalis Matthaiou, Queen's University Belfast
The next generation multiple access (NGMA) techniques are expected to achieve massive and ubiquitous access for alarge number of devices and provide high spectral efficiency in ultra-dense networks. To meet these unprecedented mobile
traffic demands, a paradigm shift from the conventional cellular networks towards distributed communication systems isrequired. Cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (CF-mMIMO) is considered as a practical and scalable
embodiment of the distributed/ network MIMO systems, which inherits not only the key benefits from colocated massive
MIMO systems, but also the macro-diversity gain from the distributed systems. In this paper, we provide an overview ofcurrent research efforts on the CF-mMIMO systems and their promising future application scenarios. Then, we elaborateon the new requirements for CF-mMIMO networks and propose a unifying framework for NGMA based on virtual fullduplex and CF-mMIMO.

Shedding Light on Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access
Hikmet Sari, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications
Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) has been a hot research topic in wireless communications over the past decade.
Although there are other versions of NOMA, the literature on the subject has been heavily focused on Power-Domain
NOMA (PD-NOMA), which imposes a power imbalance between user signals and employs a successive interference
cancellation (SIC) receiver to detect them. The interest in this technique was driven by an information theoretic argumentthat orthogonal multiple access is not optimum in general and that superposition coding coupled with SIC provides anoptimum solution for multiple access. In this talk, we revisit the concept of PD-NOMA, discuss it from a pragmatic angle,
and we make several rather surprising observations. In particular, we highlight the fact that the basic principle of PDNOMA on the downlink is a pure signal constellation design and that a threshold detector is actually all that is needed at
the receiver. For the uplink, we first point out the fairness issue related to the disparity between the users’ data rates
achieved by the SIC receiver and the fair rates suggested by the power distribution among users. Next, using a unified
system model that covers both PD-NOMA and Multi-User MIMO, we summarize the results of a recent study on the
power imbalance in PD-NOMA, which revealed that the optimum in terms of the average bit error rate is achieved when
the power imbalance is reduced to 0, i.e., when this technique coincides with Multi-User MIMO. This result tends toquestion the concept of PD-NOMA in general, and it suggests that this technique is only suitable for hierarchical multiple
access, i.e., in scenarios where high-profile user equipment are paired with low-power devices like sensors. We also
briefly recall NOMA-2000, which avoids the basic problems of PD-NOMA.
Hikmet Sari is a Professor at Nanjing University of Posts andTelecommunications, Nanjing, China. From 2003 to 2016, he
was Professor and Department Head at Supelec, near Paris, andChief Scientist of Sequans Communications. Prior to this, heheld various research and managerial positions in industry

Movable Antenna (MA) Aided Wireless Communications and Sensing: Opportunities
and Challenges
Rui Zhang, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen and National University of Singapore
Movable antenna (MA) has been recently recognized as a promising technology for enhancing wireless system
performance by exploiting wireless channel spatial variation via antenna movement at the transmitter and/or receiver. In
this talk, we provide a comprehensive overview of MAs, including their historical development, practical architecturesand implementation methods, contemporary applications in wireless communications and sensing (ISAC), as well as
mathematical models, design issues (such as channel estimation, continuous/discrete movement optimization) andpromising approaches to solve them. In particular, we present a new field-response-based channel model, which greatly
facilitates the analysis, design and optimization of MA-aided wireless systems. Based on this model, various performanceadvantages of MAs over conventional fixed-position antennas (FPAs) are demonstrated, in terms of spatial
diversity/multiplexing, interference mitigation, flexible beamforming, and wireless sensing. Furthermore, a general sixdimensional MA (6DMA) system is introduced, which consists of distributed antenna surfaces that can be independently
adjusted in terms of 3D position and 3D rotation to achieve the greatest flexibility in movement. We show that by jointly
designing the positions and rotations of all 6DMA surfaces equipped at the base station (BS) based on the users’ statisticalchannel information, the wireless network capacity can be significantly improved over the existing BS with FPAs (e.g.,sector antenna arrays). Finally, we shed light on the research directions worthy of investigation in future work to unleash
the full potential of MAs for wireless networks.

As the application of 5G becomes widely spread into our daily life, ITU-R has published its Framework Recommendation
towards 2030 and beyond, commonly known as the global 6G vision. Six usage scenarios and their associated capabilities
are identified, including enhanced communication scenarios and beyond communication scenarios. Together with thevision, cmWave band has also been identified for further investigation, which makes possible of even higher dimension
MIMO at both network and user side, bringing multi-fold capacity and spectrum efficiency gain to support immersive
communication. Meanwhile, the standardization of 5.5G has been initiated since Release 18 of 3GPP, which is formallycalled 5G Advanced and will continue its evolution into the following Releases. Along the technology evolution, 5.5G
has somehow touched all of the six scenarios defined in the 6G vision. In this panel, we will focus the discussion on the
beyond communication aspects that have been studied for 5.5G and 6G such as AI and sensing, including the potential
use cases, enabling technologies, and standard progress.
