Episode 29: Spatial AI for Wireless Communications and Edge AI Techniques
Traditional rule-based resource allocation and siloed sensing frameworks are hitting their physical limits. Discover how spatial intelligence and generative world models allow next-generation networks to perceive, reason, and dynamically optimize radio environments in real time. In this podcast, Professor Aryan Kaushik and Professor Jun Zhang from HKUST university discuss a number of exciting topics including moving from deep learning overlays to AI-native physical layers, Spatial AI and semantic awareness in complex radio environments, the role of foundation models and multimodal agents in network orchestration and benchmarking the future of 6G automation. Enjoy this excellent discussion between Professors Kaushik and Zhang.

Episode 28: AI, ISAC and Latest Trends and Challenges for 6G and Beyond
In this podcast, number 28 in the IEEE CTN podcast series, Prof. Aryan Kaushik speaks with Professor Narcis Cardona of Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV), Spain, about the vision, but most importantly, the expectations and realities of 6G. This may sound like a well-traveled path, but Professor Cardona presents some very interesting perspectives on the key new elements that would differentiate 6G from 5G. They discuss in great depth the challenges facing operators, industry, and academia as we approach the initial release of 6G specifications and products. We hope you enjoy this podcast as much as we did.
