On the technology side\, the webinar will explore and compare emerging parad igms such as Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS)\, radio stripes\, e xtremely large MIMO (XL-MIMO)\, mmWave/THz\, which are paving the way for unprecedented opportunities for ubiquitous location awareness. From a meth odological perspective\, the webinar will examine theoretical performance bounds to assess the feasibility of various localization and sensing confi gurations\, and present some advanced signal processing techniques (i.e.\, phase-coherent processing) that are key to achieving high-accuracy positi oning and sensing in 5G/6G wireless systems.\n\nThe webinar is free and op en to all.\n\n--\nAlessio Fascista received the Ph.D. degree in Engineerin g of Complex Systems from the University of Salento (Lecce\, Italy) in 201 9. He is currently a Tenure Track Assistant Professor of Telecommunication s at the Department of Electrical and Information Engineering (DEI)\, Poli tecnico di Bari. Formerly\, he was an Assistant Professor at Università d el Salento. He has held a visiting position at the Department of Telecommu nications and Systems Engineering of the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona (UAB\, Spain) in 2018\, and at the Department of Electrical Engineering o f the Chalmers University of Technology (Gothenburg\, Sweden) in 2022. His main research interests are in the field of telecommunications with focus on statistical signal processing for detection\, estimation\, and localiz ation in terrestrial wireless systems. Relevant application fields are wir eless networks (including 5G and beyond)\, radars\, and emerging network c ontexts (including intelligent cyber-physical systems\, smart devices\, an d environmental monitoring systems). He is the recipient of the 2021 IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Society (ITSS\, Italy Chapter) best Ph. D. dissertation award for the thesis: “Cooperative Positioning based on Array Processing and Information Fusion”\, and of the “Francesco Caras sa 2022 Award” for the Signal Processing area from the Consorzio Naziona le Interuniversitario per le Telecomunicazioni (CNIT).
