16th International Conference on
Signal Processing and Communication System

6 - 8 September 2023| Bydgoszcz, Poland

Communication Systems worldwide have provided a rapidly growing and useful range of services and are continuing to evolve using a multitude of Signal Processing techniques. The 16th International Conference on Signal Processing and Communication Systems, ICSPCS 2023, follows the very successful ICSPCS’2021 and ICSPCS’2021, which were held as fully on-line conferences due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2023, the Organizing Committee plans to return to normal in-person presentations. The ICSPCS’2023 will be held in Bydgoszcz, Poland. A major objective of the Conference will be to pursue the progression from communication and information theory through to the implementation, evaluation and performance improvement of practical communication systems using signal processing technology including AI. The Conference is also planned to be a forum for presenting research into topics ranging from those of the physical layer to the application layer. All aspects of the protocols and processes required for the future communication systems to operate better and the applications to utilize the full potential offered by the current and the emerging networking infrastructure are also encompassed. Papers dealing with signal processing for 5G and beyond and for minimizing energy use (Green Communications) are very welcome, too. Similarly, the conference welcomes papers considering protocols for the Internet of Things (IoT) and Smart Grid.
In addition, we expect that, as during the previous events, there will be several papers dealing with image, video and audio processing for multimedia, medical and forensic applications, with the security of networks and information transmitted and stored, as well as other unconventional applications of signal processing and/or telecommunications modeling techniques.
Each of the submitted papers will receive 3 independent reviews and it is expected that the acceptance rate will be around 30 to 40% and not exceed 50%.

As in the previous years, the conference is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society. Accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases. Previously unpublished contributions to the following technical areas, but not limited to, are solicited.

Authors of the papers with the highest review scores will be encouraged to provide extended versions that will undergo a new peer review for publication in AEU – International Journal of Electronics and Communications AEU. Selected papers should be extended at least by 40% compared to the conference submissions, including more experimental/simulation results before submitting to journal, and authors should state in “Acknowledgment” part of their journal paper that “A preliminary version of this work has been published in ICSPCS’2023 and cite therein.”
