Call For Papers
Paper submission deadline: May 31, 2024 June 14, 2024 (Firm deadline)
We are pleased to invite your submissions for the 3rd edition of the International Conference on 6G Networking (6GNet 2024), which will be held in Paris, France, from October 21 to 24, 2024!
6G network research is already ongoing with multiple initiatives worldwide. Besides the (somewhat questionable) speed race, 6G networking is a tremendous opportunity to investigate and foster research in areas like the need for massive digital inclusion and stronger robustness against attacks of any kind, among other challenging topics like global network automation and cross-domain service/slice design, delivery and operation. 6G networking may also be seen as a true convergence point where the distinction between fixed and mobile infrastructures would not make sense anymore. The research effort in this area of convergence has ignited for quite some time but dramatically progressed with 5G techniques, possibly combined with others like advanced forwarding schemes (multi-path communication designs) or AI/ML-fueled network automation. This third 6G conference therefore aims at assessing the progress of the various research efforts in areas that will forge 6G networks.
The 6GNet conference will bring together top-notch experts from academia and industry (including network operators) to stimulate discussions, introduce new ideas and thereby contribute to the progress of 6G networking research.
We invite authors to submit original contributions in all areas of 6G networks.

- Localization in 6G
- Security and privacy within 6G
- Edge and embedded edge cloud computing
- Softwarization and virtualization in fixed and mobile networks
- 6G QoS and slicing

- 6G migration strategies (coexistence with 5G and legacy techs)
Submission guidelines
6G Network 2024 solicits original, unpublished work not currently under review by other conferences or journals. All Papers submitted to 6G Networking 2024 will be assessed based on originality, technical soundness, clarity and interest to a wide audience.
Technical papers can be of two types: full papers and short papers.
- Full papers will not exceed 9 pages (11-point font) including tables, figures and references.
- Short papers should not exceed 5 pages (11-point font) including tables, figures and references.
All Submissions must be written in English, and must use standard IEEE two-column conference template, available for download from the IEEE website:
https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html
Only PDF files will be accepted for the review process, and all submissions must be done electronically through EDAS using the following link: https://edas.info/N32209
Papers exceeding page limits, multiple submissions, and self-plagiarized papers will be rejected without further review. All other papers will sustain a thorough single-blind review process.
6GNet 2024 is technically co-sponsored by IEEE, IEEE ComSoc All accepted and presented papers will be submitted for publication in IEEE Xplore.
Authors of best papers will be invited to submit an extended version in Annals of Telecommunications, a Springer Journal.
