Scope

Wireless technologies, in general, and the Wireless Internet, in particular, became pervasive in our everyday lives. We rely on wireless connectivity for work, social connections, commerce, finance, health, etc. It would be hardly possible for our generation to imagine life without wireless access.

WiCON 2022 is the continuation of, and builds upon, the success of the past editions in this series that focus on various aspects of wireless technology. Building on these past successes, the 15th WiCON 2022 aims to tackle the challenges of wireless Internet communications, covering topics ranging from technology issues to new applications, especially focusing on current, novel, and future next-generation wireless Internet technologies, 5G, 6G, IoT, Industrial IoT, Healthcare IoT, and related topics. WiCON 2022 aims to bring together researchers, leading academic scientists to share their experiences and research findings on all aspects of Wireless Internet Communications. It also offers a leading interdisciplinary forum for academics, educators, and practitioners to present and discuss the latest technologies, developments, practical challenges and approaches to Wireless Internet.

Prospective authors are kindly encouraged to participate in the conference by sending Full Papers, Work-in-Progress Papers, and Posters of their work. Last but not the least, middleware and platform providers, application developers, and smart object providers are also welcome. WiCON attendees will present novel ideas, exchange points of views, and foster collaborations. Papers, posters, and demos expressing the point of view of middleware and platform providers, smart object providers, application developers, and researchers are particularly welcome.
