Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Intelligent algorithms have emerged that mimic the intelligence behavior of natural phenomenon. The literature has shown that more than 300 global optimization algorithms exist, with many being proposed on a regular basis. The intelligent algorithms have been proven to solve large-scale real-world optimization problems better than conventional approaches in different domain, such as the telecommunication system, internet of medical things, etc. Different parts of the world are currently adopting the 5G wireless communication systems, and research into the future communication systems on the 6G has already begun. Intelligent algorithms, such as the genetic algorithms, particle swarm optimization, deep learning, differential evolutionary, support vector machine, cuckoo search optimization algorithms, explainable artificial intelligence, etc., were found to be applied in different aspects of 5G, such as energy, security, resource management, slicing, quality of service, path loss modeling, etc., to solve practical problems.
Despite the development recorded by intelligent algorithms to solve problems in 5G and beyond wireless communication systems, a lot of gaps exist that need the research community to focus on explorations of intelligent algorithms in 5G and beyond wireless communication systems. On the other hand, 6G wireless communication systems’ research is at the early stage of development; as such, potential solutions for 6G issues based on intelligent algorithms are required to guide industry practitioners and the academia.
The main aim of this Special Issue is to collect recent developments exploring intelligent algorithms in 5G and 6G wireless communication systems. Theoretical, original and review/survey articles are welcomed for submission in this Special Issue.
