【讲座摘要】

随着无线通信网络技术的快速发展，我们梦想着在未来“将地面移动网络扩展到天空”。构建航空点对点（ad hoc）网络以实现“云端互联网”是未来通信网络的进化趋势之一。然而，现有的用于航空通信的物理层传输技术不能支持云端互联网这种高吞吐量应用。本次报告将介绍由陈生教授团队最新提出的一种基于大规模MIMO辅助的自适应编码/调制的物理层传输方案，该方案能够提供足够高的吞吐量，以支持空对空传输，从而帮助实现云端互联网。值得关注的是，云端互联网实现还有许多未知的挑战和机遇等待研究人员的发掘，特别是在如何构建可靠的高层协议以实现航空自组织网络方面。

We have been dreaming of “extending terrestrial mobile network to sky”, more speciﬁcally, constructing aeronautical ad hoc network for realizing “Internet above the Cloud”. Existing physical-layer transmission techniques for aeronautical communications are incapable of supporting this high-throughput application. In this talk, we present our newly proposed massive MIMO assisted adaptive coding and modulation based physical-layer transmission scheme, which is capable of offering sufﬁciently high throughput to support air-to-air transmission for realizing “Internet above the Cloud”. Many challenges remain, particularly, on how to construct reliable higher-layer protocols for enabling aeronautical ad hoc networking to realize the dream of “Internet above the Cloud”.
