The rapid development of next-generation Internet of Things (IoT) applications, including integrated-sensing-and-communication (ISAC), smart grids, smart cities, intelligent transport networks, etc., enables at least tens of billions of bandwidth-thirsty IoT devices, which consume a deluge of data in the sixth-generation (6G) communication systems. In addition, future challenging heterogeneous services and applications, such as Industry 4.0, require the provisioning of unprecedented massive device access, heterogeneous data traffic, high spectral efficiency, and low latency. As a result, there is an urgent demand to pay more attention to IoT networks for high-reliable and low-delay massive access.

关于下一代物联网多路访问的客座社论特刊


新一代物联网（IoT）应用的快速发展，包括集成传感与通信（ISAC）、智能电网、智慧城市、智能交通网络等，使至少数百亿带宽需求成为可能。物联网设备在第六代 (6G) 通信系统中消耗大量数据。此外，未来具有挑战性的异构服务和应用，例如工业4.0，需要提供前所未有的海量设备访问、异构数据流量、高频谱效率和低延迟。因此，迫切需要更加重视物联网网络的高可靠、低时延的海量接入。
