This book gives readers an overview about technologies that are useful for developments related to Smart Cities.Some technologies are already available, such for example, as smart meters for electricity and gas in buildings. But there are possibilities to incorporate existing devices into wider networks with other smart devices that currently operate independently. This in turn will considerably improve the reduction of the energy consumption in buildings, reduction of emission pollutions in cities and improvement of the well-being of people. The other objective of this book is to introduce readers to new technologies which are not yet implemented in areas related to the efficient functioning of cities. For example, areas related to Intelligent Transport Systems are mostly developed for the optimization of the traffic flow, reduction of accidents on roads, improvement of the safety of drivers and related to road transportation problems. The rapid advances in Blockchain technologies are also covered.

This book investigates in detail the generalized principle of the pattern multiplication (GPPM) and its application to new phased array with high performances. It introduces the generalized element factor (GEF) to small aperture with multi-modes. Based on the GEF, the GPPM can be used to construct the wide-angle scanning array with the dual-port phase mode antenna. Further, a dual-port phase mode SSPPs antenna is proposed to scan in 3D free space. It is extended to two kinds of 1D arrays with 4 elements; both of them perform good 3D scanning with high gain and large range, which will improve future radar design and wireless communication. This book proposes a new method to develop the potentialities of the GPPM and the new phase array. And the readers can study the method or ideas of the GEF, GPPM, even graft the methods to new phase mode antenna and array. It is intended for undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in new phase mode antenna and array technology, researchers investigating high-performance antenna, and antenna design engineers working on phase array applications.
This book demonstrates that the reliable and secure communication performance of maritime communications can be significantly improved by using intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) aided communication, privacy-aware Internet of Things (IoT) communications, intelligent resource management and location privacy protection. In the IRS aided maritime communication system, the reflecting elements of IRS can be intelligently controlled to change the phase of signal, and finally enhance the received signal strength of maritime ships (or sensors) or jam maritime eavesdroppers illustrated in this book.The power and spectrum resource in maritime communications can be jointly optimized to guarantee the quality of service (i.e., security and reliability requirements), and reinforcement leaning is adopted to smartly choose the resource allocation strategy. Moreover, learning based privacy-aware offloading and location privacy protection are proposed to intelligently guarantee the privacy-preserving requirements of maritime ships or (sensors). Therefore, these communication schemes based on reinforcement learning algorithms can help maritime communication systems to improve the information security, especially in dynamic and complex maritime environments.This timely book also provides broad coverage of the maritime wireless communication issues, such as reliability, security, resource management, and privacy protection. Reinforcement learning based methods are applied to solve these issues. This book includes four rigorously refereed chapters from prominent international researchers working in this subject area. The material serves as a useful reference for researchers, graduate students. Practitioners seeking solutions to maritime wireless communication and security related issues will benefit from this book as well.

The Internet-of-Things (IoT) revolution has triggered the need of massive connectivity for billions of devices requiring a system capacity which is far beyond the current network designs that can be supported. This emerging requirement has reshaped the society and industry in pursuing efficient communication paradigm. In particular, massive machine-type communications (mMTC) will be a prime driver for enabling the vision of scalable IoT with heterogeneous applications, where the massive access is of paramount importance. This book discusses important massive IoT scenarios and the key technical requirements of the corresponding massive access. We review the state-of-the-art IoT standards and mMTC solutions, and summarize the limitations of the existing schemes from the perspectives of the network architecture, random access procedure, and multiple access techniques. Here, we specify the massive access challenges and reveal that the facilitation of MTC invokes a dramatically different access scheme from current ones mainly designed for human-centric communications. Moreover, we propose several promising massive access solutions to overcome the limitations, where sufficient theoretical model and algorithm design guidance are provided. Besides, detailed simulation and engineering implementation methods are also included.

While the 5th Generation (5G) system is being widely deployed across the globe, the information and communication technology (ICT) industry, research, standardization and consensus building for the 6th generation (6G) are already well underway with high expectations towards the merger of digital, physical, and human worlds. The main goal of this book is to introduce the upcoming 6G technologies and outline the foreseen challenges, enablers, and architectural design trends that will be instrumental in realizing a Sustainable and Trustworthy 6G system in the coming years.The envisioned 6G system promises to offer a more advanced and comprehensive user experience not only by achieving higher speeds, larger capacity, and lower latency, but also much more improved reliability, greater energy efficiency, and an enhanced security and privacy-preserving framework while natively integrating intelligence end-to-end (E2E). Achieving these goals will require innovative technological solutions and a holistic system design that considers the needs of various stakeholders and future 6G use cases.Capitalizing on the European 5G Public-Private-Partnership (5G PPP) Phase 3 projects working on 5G & Beyond and 6G research in recent years, and the join efforts between the Architecture Working Group (WG) and the 6G flagship Hexa-X project, this book delves into the critical challenges and enablers of the 6G system, including new network architectures and novel enhancements as well as the role of regulators, network operators, industry players, application developers, and end-users.

This book provides an overview of the Internet of Things Network and Machine Learning and introduces Internet of Things architecture. It designs a new intelligent IoT network architecture and introduces different machine learning approaches to investigate solutions. It discusses how machine learning can help network awareness and achieve network intelligent control. It also dicusses the emerging network techniques that can enable the development of intelligent IoT networks. This book applies several intelligent approaches for efficient resource scheduling in networks. It discusses Mobile Edge Computing aided intelligent IoT and focuses mainly on the resource sharing and edge computation offloading problems in mobile edge networks. The blockchain-based IoT (which allows fairly and securely renting resources and establishing contracts) is discussed as well.The Internet of Things refers to the billions of physical devices thatare now connected to and transfer data through the Internet without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. According to Gartner's prediction, there will be more than 37 billion IoT connections in the future year of 2025. However, with large-scale IoT deployments, IoT networks are facing challenges in the aspects of scalability, privacy, and security. The ever-increasing complexity of the IoT makes effective monitoring, overall control, optimization, and auditing of the network difficult. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) approaches have emerged as a viable solution to address this challenge. Machine learning can automatically learn and optimize strategy directly from experience without following pre-defined rules. Therefore, it is promising to apply machine learning in IoT network control and management to leverage powerful machine learning adaptive abilities for higher network performance.
