Description
Description On April 25, 2024, the IEEE ComSoc Student branch chapter of University of Peradeniya in collaboration with IEEE Central Region Sub Section Sri Lanka, hosted an online webinar on Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC) in 6G. With the clock striking 2:00 PM Colombo time, participants from diverse backgrounds convened virtually to explore the signaling backbone of 6G. The webinar commenced with a warm welcome from the moderator, Mr. Oshada Damutha, setting the tone for an engaging and informative session. The audience was privileged to witness the expertise of Dr. Sahan Damith Liyanaarachchi, a distinguished Radio Research Scientist at Nokia Bell Labs, Espoo, Finland. Dr. Liyanaarachchi captivated attendees with his insights into ISAC, elucidating its pivotal role in shaping the future of telecommunications. In this engaging presentation, Dr. Liyanaarachchi discussed the pivotal role of ISAC in shaping the landscape of 6G networks. By seamlessly integrating sensing capabilities with communication systems, ISAC promises to revolutionize various sectors, from healthcare to smart cities. Dr. Liyanaarachchi marked the potential applications of ISAC, ranging from ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) to massive machine-type communication (mMTC), thereby enabling a myriad of innovative use cases. The session was ended with a dynamic Q&A session, where participants had the opportunity to engage directly with Dr. Liyanaarachchi, gaining further clarity on ISAC and its implications for the future. As the event drew to a close, Mr. Shannon Gunawardhana, Chair of IEEE ComSoc Student Branch chapter, delivered a heartfelt vote of thanks, expressing gratitude to Dr. Liyanaarachchi for his invaluable contribution. In a symbolic gesture of appreciation, Dr. Sahan Damith Liyanaarachchi was honored with a token of appreciation, symbolizing the collective gratitude of the attendees for his enlightening discourse. With the curtains falling on this illuminating webinar, participants departed with enriched knowledge and a deeper understanding of ISAC in 6G, eagerly anticipating future sessions that promise to further unravel the mysteries of telecommunication
