WS-5: Workshop on OTFS and Delay-Doppler Signal Processing for 6G and Future High-Mobility Communications

Scope
Communications in high mobility scenarios suffer from severe Doppler spreads, which deteriorate the performance of the widely adopted orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation in the current 4G and 5G networks. Recently, a new two-dimensional modulation scheme referred to as orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) was proposed, where the information symbols are multiplexed in the Delay-Doppler (DD) domain. OTFS provides the possibility to embrace localized delay and Doppler impairments and converts time-frequency selective channels in to an invariant channel in the DD domain. More importantly, OTFS enjoys the full time-frequency diversity of the channel, which is the key to provide reliable transmissions for the future 6G and high mobility communications. This workshop aims at bringing together academic and industrial researchers in an effort to identify and discuss the major technical challenges, recent breakthroughs, and new applications related to OTFS.
