Abstract: The vision of future mobile communication systems is to provide seamless high data rate wireless connections for anyone at anytime and anywhere, including the high mobility scenarios such as high speed trains and highway vehicles. High mobility results in rapidly time-varying channels, which pose significant challenges in the design of practical systems, including channel modeling, fast handover, location management, synchronization, estimation and equalization, anti-Doppler spread techniques, coding and network capacity, capacity-approaching techniques, dedicated network architectures, distributed antenna techniques and etc. In addition, with the development of vehicular networks, more rigorous performance requirements (e.g., ultra-low latency and ultra-high reliability) are also required for advanced driving applications such as platooning, full automated driving, collective perception of environment and so on, which makes the research and development of wireless systems more challenging. Accordingly, the 10th international workshop on High Mobility Wireless Communications (HMWC) aims at fostering fruitful interactions among interested communication engineers, information theorists and system designers from all over the world, building successful collaborations and bridging the gap between theory and practice.
