Keynote I: User-centric Ultra-dense Networks for 5G
 
Prof. Shanzhi Chen 
CTO, Datang Telecom Technology & Industry Group, Director of State Key Laboratory of Wireless Mobile Communications, China
 
Abstract: Ultra-dense networking (UDN) is considered as a promising technology for 5G. We define user-centric UDN (UUDN) by introducing the philosophy of the network serving user and the “de-cellular” method. Based on the analysis of challenges and requirements of UUDN, a new architecture is presented that breaks through the traditional cellular architecture of the network controlling user. Dynamic AP grouping is proposed as the core function of UUDN, through which a user could enjoy satisfactory and secure service following his movement. Furthermore, we provide methods for mobility management, resource management, interference management, and security issues. We point out that these functions should be co-designed and jointly optimized in order to improve the system throughput with higher resource utilization, better user experience, and increased energy efficiency. Future works in UUDN will be discussed.

Keynote II: Enabling Intrusion Detection With Ultra-Dense Deployment of Access Points
 
Prof. Teng Joon Lim 
National University of Singapore
 
Abstract: In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), clustering sensor nodes and appointing those with superior resources as cluster heads addresses the network scalability problem and reduces power consumption. In 5G cellular communications, ultra-dense deployment of small-cell access points or base stations serves a similar purpose for human-centric devices. Therefore, it appears that ultra-dense deployment of data aggregation infrastructure such as cluster heads and access points will be unavoidable in the wireless networks of the future. Since the information communicated between the base station and each cluster of sensor nodes in a WSN goes through the cluster head, it is therefore of vital importance to guarantee that the cluster head is not compromised by an adversary, and one can say the same about human-centric networks. However, intrusion detection at cluster heads has not been studied thoroughly, and most of the secure clustering protocols in the literature are designed heuristically. In this talk, we propose a novel clustering scheme that detects abnormal cluster head behaviour due to packet modification and other forms of security attacks. Our approach is lightweight in that it only makes use of the transmitted information of sensor nodes and does not require additional energy consumption at sensor nodes to monitor the cluster heads. Furthermore, we derive simple, practical design methods to determine the key parameters of the proposed clustering scheme. Verified by extensive simulation tests, the analytical results provide accurate guidelines for implementing the proposed scheme to accomplish cluster-head intrusion detection with any desired level of performance.

Biography: TJ Lim grew up in Singapore, obtained the B.Eng. degree in Electrical Engineering with first-class honours from the National University of Singapore in 1992, and the Ph.D. degree from the University of Cambridge in 1996. From September 1995 to November 2000, he was a researcher at the Centre for Wireless Communications in Singapore, one of the predecessors of the Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R). From December 2000 to May 2011, he was Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, then Professor at the University of Toronto's Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. Since June 2011, he has been a Professor at the National University of Singapore's Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, where he served as the Deputy Head (Research and Graduate Programs) from July 2014 to August 2015. He currently serves as Vice-Dean (Graduate Programmes) in the Faculty of Engineering. Professor Lim is an Area Editor (in the Wireless Communications Theory and Systems I area) of the IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, and previously served as an Associate Editor for the same journal. He was an Associate Editor for IEEE Wireless Communications Letters, IEEE Signal Processing Letters and IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology, and an Executive Editor for Wiley Transactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies (ETT). He has contributed to the organization of a number of IEEE conferences, including IEEE Globecom 2017, and is a regular TPC member at major international conferences. His research interests span many topics within wireless communications, including security in the Internet of Things, heterogeneous networks, cooperative transmission, energy-optimized communication networks, multi-carrier modulation, MIMO, cooperative diversity, cognitive radio, and stochastic geometry for wireless networks, and he has published widely in these areas.
