Best Paper Awards

Congratulations to the recipients of the ICC 2022 Best Paper Awards. These papers were selected as the result of a rigorous process that considered the nearly 1,000 papers that were accepted from the nearly 2,500 submissions. The co-chairs of each symposium nominated a set of top papers for the award, and these nominations were reviewed by a committee of 19 respected scholars. The committee considered each nominated paper, its reviewer comments, a nomination statement by the symposium co-chairs, and the recorded video presentation. As a result of the process, a total of 16 papers were selected by the committee for the award – one paper for each of the 11 smallest symposia, two papers for the Wireless Communications Symposium, and three papers for the Selected Areas in Communications Symposium. Below, you will find the members of the Best Paper Awards Selection Committee along with the list of the recipients of the award.
