Intelligent Reflecting Surface Aided Wireless Communications: A Tutorial

Intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRS) can significantly enhance wireless communication performance by smartly controlling signal reflections. IRS offers a cost-effective way to improve capacity and reliability by reconfiguring wireless channels, but poses new challenges in reflection optimization, channel estimation, and deployment.

Integrated Sensing and Communications: Toward Dual-Functional Wireless Networks for 6G and Beyond

This paper reviews the emerging field of Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC), where wireless networks simultaneously transmit data and sense the environment. It explores various applications, performance trade-offs, signal processing techniques, and the integration of ISAC with other emerging technologies like edge intelligence and RIS.

Context-Aware Security for 6G Wireless: The Role of Physical Layer Security

The paper proposes a context-aware security framework for 6G wireless, leveraging physical layer security (PLS) and AI to adapt security measures based on the communication context. This framework aims to address emerging challenges in 6G, such as increased latency constraints and the proliferation of IoT devices, by incorporating factors like location, time, and environmental conditions into security protocols.

The EC-Earth3 Earth system model for the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 6

EC-Earth3, a new Earth system model developed by a European consortium, shows improved performance compared to its predecessor in simulating key climate variables, including atmospheric circulation, sea ice, and the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. However, biases remain, especially a warm Southern Ocean and underestimated Antarctic sea ice, which require further investigation.
