IEEE NL CCCS Chapter Technical Event - Rateless Joint Source Channel Coding with Application in Semantic Communications

IEEE Newfoundland-Labrador Computer, Communication, and Circuits & Systems Joint Societies Chapter cordially invites you to a technical presentation entitled “Rateless Joint Source Channel Coding with Application in Semantic Communications” by Dr. Saeed R. Khosravirad, Nokia Bell Labs, New Jersey, USA.

When: Jan. 23, 2025, 1.30-3.30pm (Thursday)

Where: CSF-1203, ECE Boardroom, Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John’s, NL, Canada

Seminar Title: Rateless Joint Source Channel Coding with Application in Semantic Communications

Seminar Abstract:
This talk aims to dive into the practical concerns around semantic communication and provide a blueprint for semantic networking system design relying on updating the existing network systems with some essential modifications. To this end, a new family of joint source-channel codes, dubbed rateless JSCC, is introduced and a deep neural network realization of them is presented, which will enable the application and the network to seamlessly form a cooperative joint venture towards sematic communication. The talk will also outline a comprehensive list of open research problems and development challenges towards a practical 6G semantic communications system design.

Biography of the Speaker:
Saeed R. Khosravirad is a Nokia Bell Labs member of the technical staff. In his role he has contributed to wireless networking technologies beyond conventional mobile broadband: this includes wireless communications for cyber-physical applications and cloud-robotics, artificial intelligence as enabler of radar sensing to create digital twin of the world, and electromagnetic and circuit theory as essential elements of understanding and expanding communications and information theory. He received his Ph. D. degree in telecommunications from McGill University, Canada. Prior to that, he received the B. Sc. degree from the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Tehran, Iran, and the M. Sc. degree from the department of Electrical Engineering, Sharif University of Technology, Iran. During 2018-2019, he was with the Electrical & Computer Engineering department of University of Toronto, Canada as a Visiting Scholar. He is a senior member of the IEEE, editor of the IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, editor of the IEEE Communications Magazine, and holds more than 100 published papers and patents.
