2015 Proceeding- Program Chairs:
- Ranveer Chandra,
- Kannan Srinivasan
It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the Second ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Wireless (HotWireless 2015). This year's HotWireless continues from where we left off last year. It has an exciting program focused on disruptive wireless technologies and systems that can enable orders of magnitude improvements in performance and novel wireless applications. HotWireless strives to provide a launching pad for bold and visionary ideas, and to bring together experts in hardware, physical layer, networks, and systems to address core technical challenges in these emerging wireless technologies.
This year we received 16 submissions, of which we selected 10 for publication. The program committee consisted of 19 wireless experts from around the world, who did a fantastic job to provide an average of 4 reviews per paper. The accepted papers this year include exciting topics, which range from indoor localization and 3-D mapping, to low level wireless communication, to communication with UAVs using free space optics. In addition to the accepted papers, we will also have invited talks from several wireless experts.
We look forward to your active participation in this workshop!

3D Printing Your Wireless Coverage
Directing wireless signals and customizing wireless coverage is of great importance in residential, commercial, and industrial environments. It can improve the wireless reception quality, reduce the energy consumption, and achieve better security and ...
A Little Sharing Goes a Long Way: The Case for Reciprocal Wifi Sharing
Widespread deployment of private home Wifi access points (APs) can result in uncoordinated and overlapping wireless networks that compete with each other for limited bandwidth. We expect this suboptimal arrangement to only get worse, particularly in the ...
ShiftFFT: An Efficient Approach to Mitigate Adjacent Channel Interference in OFDM Systems
Adjacent channel interference (ACI) in wireless systems is commonly mitigated through the use of guard bands and filters. Guard bands are not used for any transmissions and are therefore wasted spectrum. The use of sharp filters can reduce the size of ...
PolyPoint: Guiding Indoor Quadrotors with Ultra-Wideband Localization
We introduce PolyPoint, the first RF localization system which enables the real-time tracking and navigating of quadrotors through complex indoor environments. PolyPoint leverages the new ScenSor transceiver from DecaWave to acquire the timestamps ...
Ving: Bootstrapping the Desktop Area Network with a Vibratory Ping
The emergence of the Internet of Things will cause the density of wirelessly networked devices to increase significantly. As the industry and density continue to grow, enabling and managing networks of these devices in a scalable manner without constant ...
Systems For Spectrum Forensics
Historically, spectrum allocations were assigned to a single user by regulation and spectrum interference was relatively easy to identify. Enforcement was simplified by having a small set of known licensees. Spectrum regulation is increasingly moving ...
Low-Cost, Flexible and Open Platform for Visible Light Communication Networks
Built around a cost-effective embedded Linux system, OpenVLC1.0 is an open source, flexible, software-defined, and low-cost platform for research in Visible Light Communication (VLC) Networks. OpenVLC1.0 consists of simple electronic hardware for ...
Autonomous Alignment of Free-Space-Optical Links Between UAVs
Free-Space-Optical (FSO) communication has the potential to make high data rate point-to-point transfers possible. Despite its capacity advantages, FSO communication (FSOC) requires establishment and maintenance of line-of-sight (LOS) alignment. We ...
THINK: Toward Practical General-Purpose Brain-Computer Communication
In this paper, we present \textbf{THINK}, a practical general-purpose brain-computer communication platform that relies on the OpenBCI and OpenViBE hardware and software platforms, and allows for a simple three-alphabet vocabulary. Specifically, we ...
Enabling Real-Time Collaborative Brain-Mobile Interactive Applications on Volunteer Mobile Devices
Commercially available wearable brain sensors and devices that convert smartphones into virtual reality systems open up the potential to implement real time collaborative brain-mobile interactive applications. These applications may derive psychological ...
