Prof. Henk Wymeersch

Biography:

Henk Wymeersch obtained the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering/Applied Sciences in 2005 from Ghent Henk_Wymeersch_2023.jpeg University, Belgium. He is currently a Professor of Communication Systems with the Department of Electrical Engineering at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden. Prior to joining Chalmers, he was a postdoctoral researcher from 2005 until 2009 with the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Prof. Wymeersch served as Associate Editor for IEEE Communication Letters, IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, and IEEE Transactions on Communications and is currently Senior Member of the IEEE Signal Processing Magazine Editorial Board.  During 2019-2021, he was an IEEE Distinguished Lecturer with the Vehicular Technology Society.  His current research interests include the convergence of communication and sensing, in a 5G and Beyond 5G context. He is a Fellow of the IEEE and a Distinguished Visiting Professor at Tsinghua University.

Agenda

Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) is emerging as a key enabler for future wireless networks, offering dual-functionality in communication and environmental sensing. This talk explores the principles of Distributed ISAC (DISAC), highlighting its potential to enhance wireless systems through cooperative and distributed architectures. We will examine the core trade-offs and synergies between sensing and communication, the impact of network synchronization, interference management, and resource allocation in distributed scenarios. Additionally, we discuss practical deployment challenges, including hardware constraints, synchronization, and the influence of multi-antenna (MIMO) and multi-node cooperation.
