Driven by various emerging use cases and applications, the 6G networks are expected to support high capacity, reliability, and massive connectivity along with other features. To meet these expectations, fluid antenna systems have emerged as a potential candidate for 6G networks to deliver extra diversity and multiplexing gains. Moreover, fluid antenna systems offer new methods to mitigate interference. In this tutorial, the key concept of fluid antenna systems will be introduced followed by the antenna technologies that enable such systems. Then, state-of-the-art techniques to serve single and multi-users in different scenarios are discussed. Finally, open issues and future directions of the fluid antenna systems are explored.The upcoming 6G wireless networks place extremely high demands on communication capacity, reliability, and number of connected devices. As an emerging and promising antenna technology, fluid antenna systems present an exciting new direction to complement and even surpass multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), and it has attracted considerable attention from both academia and industry. For example, it has been recently shown that fluid antenna systems outperform traditional antenna systems such as MIMO and antenna selection due to the unique ability to move antenna positions in a flexible way. Compared to existing systems such as rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) that require complex signal processing at the transmitter or receiver, respectively, FAS is able to support massive users via a simpler and more efficient method. This makes FAS an attractive solution for practical implementation.

Nowadays, increasing in wireless communication users urged the revision and development of new telecommunication technologies. The radio frequency spectrum becomes very compact due to increasing number of the vehicles and wireless services available. The current licensed spectrum allocation policy used by the government may not be sufficient to accommodate the growing demand of the wireless networks such as V2V communications in 6G. A dynamic system with a combination of licensed and unlicensed spectrum is inadequate to cater the problem raised due to the increasing number of vehicles and users in the wireless services especially in V2V communication In this tutorial, the participants will learn more about Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm and Vehicular network setup for dynamic spectrum management The participants will learn practically the ways to measure the quality and performance of the wireless network, various SINR for Proposed Dynamic Spectrum Algorithm, Throughput at Different Interfering Devices, Throughput for various Distance between V2V pairs for the Proposed Dynamic Spectrum Algorithm and Static Spectrum The participants will have opportunity to practically use Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) and design Interference for various Number for Interfering Devices for the Dynamic Spectrum Algorithm and analysis of effect of Interfering Devices and distance to the Throughput At the end of the program, participants will familiar more on the algorithm and USRP device which can satisfy the throughput maximization for the future 6G network.

"Be formless … shapeless, like water!", which were the words used by Bruce Lee, as he was revealing the philosophy of Jeet Kune Do, the martial arts system Lee founded in 1967. Many parallels can be drawn in wireless communications technologies where engineers have been seeking greater flexibility in using the spectral and energy resources for improving network performance. In this talk, I will speak on a novel antenna technology, referred to as fluid antenna, that adopts a software-controlled, position-flexible antenna to operate on the best signal envelope within a given space. This talk presents some early results on fluid antenna systems, and how this may contribute to next generation multiple access.

The world is currently witnessing the rise of many mission critical applications such as tele-surgery, intelligent transportation, industry automation, virtual reality and augmented reality, vehicular communications, etc. Some of these applications will be enabled by the fifth-generation of cellular networks (5G), which will provide the required ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC). However, guaranteeing these stringent reliability and end-to-end latency requirements continues to prove to be quite challenging, due to the significant shift in paradigms required in both theoretical fundamentals of wireless communications as well as design principles. In particular, a holistic framework that takes into account latency, reliability, availability, scalability, and decision-making under uncertainty is lacking. Addressing these challenges requires the development of new wireless technologies, underlying network protocols, and signal processing techniques. In this talk, we will present the key challenges and potential solutions for 5G and beyond 5G to support URLLC, in terms of error control coding improving reliability, channel access protocols for reducing latency, and multi-connectivity for improving network availability.

Peatland is important to rural communities' livelihood due to its potential for aquaculture and agriculture. Nonetheless, human activities such as slash-and-burn can greatly increase forest fire risk, which can release a great amount of greenhouse gases and carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. To sustainably manage and restore peatlands, the Internet of Things (IoT) system can incorporate with Cyber-Physical System (CPS) for peatland management. In this study, an IoT system is deployed in the peatland to monitor the ground water level (GWL) and upload it to the server for the machine learning (ML) process. The trend of GWL will be modelled, and the CPS using the developed ML model will control the peatland rewatering process. Apart from the actuation process, the predicted GWL is also profiled in Fire Danger Rating System (FDRS) indices, such as Drought Code (DC), Duff Moisture Code (DMC) and Fire Weather Index (FWI). As a result, the peatland condition can be monitored by the stakeholders and alerted to the public in realtime. Hence, the risk of potential forest fires can be mitigated through rewatering process before the GWL drops to a critical level and the area becomes susceptible to fire.
