Flooded disused coalmines could be a significant source of energy and provide cheap heat to thousands of homes, a new report argues.
Mine water geothermal heat (MWGH) systems use the water in flooded coalmines,
which is warmed by natural processes,
to supply low-carbon heat.
Heat exchangers and pumps recover the heat,
which is distributed via district heating networks to homes and buildings,
providing low-cost, long-term, stable energy.

Uncovering multi-technology convergence patterns with hypergraphs: Evolution and prediction using patent data
Technology convergence integrates distinct domains to create novel combinations, driving radical innovation that reshapes markets and industries. However, most approaches rely on pairwise networks that cannot capture multi-technology interactions and suffer scale biases from heterogeneous patenting activity. To overcome these gaps, we propose a hypergraph-based framework that directly models multi-technology convergence and identifies statistically significant convergence via a probabilistic nu…

Distributed Deep Learning with RIS Grouping for Accurate Cascaded Channel Estimation
Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) panels are envisioned as a key technology for sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks, providing a cost-effective means to enhance coverage and spectral efficiency. A critical challenge is the estimation of the cascaded base station (BS)-RIS-user channel, since the passive nature of RIS elements prevents direct channel acquisition, incurring prohibitive pilot overhead, computational complexity, and energy consumption. To address this, we propose a deep l…

reality_mining: Reality mining proximity network (2004)
A network of human proximities among students at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), as measured by personal mobile phones. Nodes represent people (students from the Media Lab and the Sloan Business School) and an edge connects a pair if the two devices made a Bluetooth handshake at the time. Edges are timestamped.

Quantum Computing for Large-scale Network Optimization: Opportunities and Challenges
The complexity of large-scale 6G-and-beyond networks demands innovative approaches for multi-objective optimization over vast search spaces, a task often intractable. Quantum computing (QC) emerges as a promising technology for efficient large-scale optimization. We present our vision of leveraging QC to tackle key classes of problems in future mobile networks. By analyzing and identifying common features, particularly their graph-centric representation, we propose a unified strategy involving …

Probabilistic Constellation Shaping for OFDM ISAC Signals Under Temporal-Frequency Filtering
Integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) is considered an innovative technology in sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks, where utilizing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communication signals for sensing provides a cost-effective solution for implementing ISAC. However, the sensing performance of matched and mismatched filtering schemes can be significantly deteriorated due to the signaling randomness induced by finite-alphabet modulations with nonconstant modulus, such …

Pair-Bid Auction Model for Optimized Network Slicing in 5G RAN
Network slicing is a key 5G technology that enables multiple virtual networks to share physical infrastructure, optimizing flexibility and resource allocation. This involves Mobile Network Operators (MNO), Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs), and end users, where MNO leases network slices to MVNOs, and then provides customized services. This work considers end-to-end network slicing with a focus on fair sharing and financial-related power efficiency, modeled as a two level hierarchical com…

Navigating the Dual-Use Nature and Security Implications of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces in Next-Generation Wireless Systems
Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) technology offers significant promise in enhancing wireless communication systems, but its dual-use potential also introduces substantial security risks. This survey explores the security implications of RIS in next-generation wireless networks. We first highlight the dual-use nature of RIS, demonstrating how its communication-enhancing capabilities can be exploited by adversaries to compromise legitimate users. We identify a new class of security vulner…

Flexible Intelligent Metasurface for Reconfiguring Radio Environments
Flexible intelligent metasurface (FIM) technology holds immense potential for increasing the spectral efficiency and energy efficiency of wireless networks. In contrast to traditional rigid reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS), an FIM consists of an array of elements, each capable of independently tuning electromagnetic signals, while flexibly adjusting its position along the direction perpendicular to the surface. In contrast to traditional rigid metasurfaces, FIM is capable of morphing i…
