Episode 14: Electromagnetic Signal and Information Theory, and Stacked Intelligent Metasurfaces
In the podcast episode #14, Prof. Aryan Kaushik, IEEE CTN Senior Editor, chats with Prof. Marco Di Renzo on latest technology of Electromagnetic Signal and Information Theory (ESIT) which sets to unveil the fundamental limits of communication systems moving from first electromagnetic principles, and to develop electromagnetically consistent communication models, signal processing and optimization algorithms. The ESIT field is inherently interdisciplinary and intended to glue research across multiple scientific fields such as including communication and information theory, signal processing, antennas and propagation, electromagnetics, metamaterials, and optics. Within the framework of ESIT, Stacked Intelligent Metasurfaces (SIM) is one of the emerging next generation technologies to enable smart radio environment. Tune in to our podcast and hear from experts on these topics. Led by both the professors in conversation, you can also follow the new IEEE ComSoc ETI on ESIT at https://www.comsoc.org/about/committees/emerging-technologies-initiatives/electromagnetic-signal-and-information-theory.

Episode 13: Digital Twins, Context-Aided Communications and 6G Technologies
With podcast episode #13, CTN continues to explore the capabilities that will help make 6G a successful evolution of 5G. In this episode Aryan Kaushik, professor at Manchester Met and CTN’s senior editor, discusses digital twins, context aided communication and other interesting technologies with professors Tommy Svensson from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden and Berk Canberk from Edinburgh Napier University in UK. Digital Twin has been a hot space for research as it promises to improve network efficiency and automation, while context aware and aided communication has been an area of great promise but still looking for maturity. Will these technologies be ready for 6G and how will they enhance 6Gs capabilities? Watch and find out.

Episode 12: Fluid Antennas for 6G and Beyond
In Episode 12 of IEEE CTN podcast series Professor Aryan Kaushik and Professor Kai-Kit Wong discuss the concept of Fluid Antennas, or fluid antenna systems (FAS) which are software-controlled structures that can change their shape, size, and position to reconfigure their performance metrics. Can this modern concept help push the envelope of overall system performance? We also would like to encourage the listener to check out the newly established ComSoc Emerging Technology Initiative (ETI) at https://sites.google.com/view/ieee-consoc-eti-on-esit .

Episode 11: 6G: The Way Forward with Important KPIs and Technologies
“6G: The Way Forward with Important KPIs and Technologies” is podcast #11 of IEEE’s ComSoc Technology News (IEEE CTN). In this podcast we are happy to have Professor Ana Garcia Armada from Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, and CTN’s Senior Editor Professor Aryan Kaushik from Manchester Met, UK sharing their views on what are the critical and important KPIs and technology adjustments that need to take place in order to make 6G the logical evolution in wireless communications. By identifying these key initial elements, R&D efforts can be more focused resulting in a smoother and valuable transition of the 5G era into the 6G era.

Episode 10: one6G's Activities and Views on 6G Framework Technologies
In Podcast #10, CTN brings you the wisdom of three excellent academic and industry researchers working together in the one6G organization (one6G – Taking communications to the next level) which looks to define what 6G might be from the European perspective. The discussion from this group is quite engaging and showcases the challenges but also the opportunities that lie ahead for 6G, while discussing the value of 5G and 5GA as the anchor for 6G. The challenges are not only technical and one6G is always looking for partners that can help solve all issues. Our thanks to the panelists for sharing their perspectives.
