The IEICE Transactions on Communications announces that it will publish 
a special section entitled "Special Section on Wired-and-Wireless Network 
System Technologies in Beyond 5G Era" in the April 2022 issue.
Studies on advanced wired-and-wireless network system technologies 
for beyond 5G era are in progress, and with the flexible network 
infrastructures supporting the creation of various application services, 
it is expected to solve social issues such as declining birthrate and aging 
population, energy depletion, and serious natural disasters. 
In Society 5.0, information networks are expected to contribute to economic 
development as well as solving such social issues by the advanced fusion of 
cyber and physical spaces. In order to realize such expectations, it is 
essential to establish wired-and-wireless network system technologies that 
create innovative value such as zero touch and infinite frontier, in addition 
to the advancement of existing technologies for larger capacity, power saving, 
ultra-low latency, flexibility, high efficiency, safety and reliability. 
Furthermore, artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) techniques 
are expected to play an important role for establishing such network systems.
In order to further promote the above-mentioned researches of networks 
beyond 5G era, we thus call publications (scheduled to appear in the April 2022
issue) to discuss and develop wired-and-wireless network system technologies 
including beyond 5G/6G networks, AI/ML, 5G/local 5G, LTE/4G, network 
virtualization/softwarization/programmability, network slicing, cloud/edge/fog 
computing, cyber-physical system (CPS), Internet of Things/Everything 
(IoT/IoE:IoX), optical network architecture, wireless access/core network, 
as well as promising application fields such as utilization of data, 
security/privacy, cooperation in different fields, and so on.

2. Submission Instructions
The standard number of pages is 8. The page charges are considerably 
higher for extra pages. Manuscripts should be prepared according to the 
guideline in the "Information for Authors." The latest version is 
available at the web site,
https://www.ieice.org/eng/shiori/mokuji_cs.html
The term for revising the manuscript after acknowledgement of 
conditional acceptance for this special section could be shorter than 
that for regular issues (60 days) because of the tight review schedule.
    This special section will accept papers only by electronic 
submission. Submit a manuscript and electronic source files (LaTeX/Word 
files, figures, authors’ photos and biographies) via the IEICE Web site
https://cert.ieice.org/auth/realms/ieice/protocol/openid-connect/auth?response_type=code&scope=openid&client_id=ieice&state=m47LaVlAQAkfg1BTpzeSmxk-s4g&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Freview.ieice.org%2Fredirect_uri&nonce=uSZvph5gRlpFi6M-4giucmFFRxe5wzAtznt26sb8ZSo&type=2&kc_locale=en 
by 10th May 2021 (JST).
Authors should choose the Wired-and-Wireless Network System Technologies 
in Beyond 5G Era as a "Journal/Section" on the online screen.
Do NOT choose [Regular EB].
