Future wireless networks will integrate sensing, learning, and communication to provide new services beyond communication and to become more resilient. Sensors at the network infrastructure, sensors on the user equipment (UE), and the sensing capability of the communication signal itself provide a new source of data that connects the physical and radio frequency (RF) environments. A wireless network that harnesses all these sensing data can not only enable additional sensing services but also become more resilient to channel-dependent effects such as blockage and better support adaptation in dynamic environments as networks reconfigure. In this article, we provide a vision for integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) networks and an overview of how signal processing, optimization, and machine learning (ML) techniques can be leveraged to make them a reality in the context of 6G. We also include some examples of the performance of several of these strategies when evaluated using a simulation framework based on a combination of ray-tracing measurements and mathematical models that mix the digital and physical worlds.

Wireless information and energy transfer (WIET) represents an emerging paradigm that employs controllable transmission of radio frequency signals for the dual purpose of data communication and wireless charging. As such, WIET is widely regarded as an enabler of envisioned sixth-generation (6G) use cases that rely on energy-sustainable Internet-of-Things (IoT) networks, such as smart cities and smart grids. Meeting the quality-of-service demands of WIET, in terms of both data transfer and power delivery, requires effective codesign of the information and energy signals. In this article, we present the main principles and design aspects of WIET, focusing on its integration in 6G networks. First, we discuss how conventional communication notions, such as resource allocation and waveform design, need to be revisited in the context of WIET. Next, we consider various candidate 6G technologies that can boost WIET efficiency, namely, holographic multiple-input multiple-output, near-field beamforming, terahertz communication, intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs), and reconfigurable (fluid) antenna arrays. We introduce respective WIET design methods, analyze the promising performance gains of these WIET systems, and discuss challenges, open issues, and future research directions. Finally, a near-field energy beamforming scheme and a power-based IRS beamforming algorithm are experimentally validated using a wireless energy transfer testbed. The vision of WIET in communication systems has been gaining momentum in recent years, with constant progress with respect to theoretical and also practical aspects. The comprehensive overview of the state of the art of WIET presented in this article highlights the potential of WIET systems and their overall benefits in 6G networks.

Three-dimensional (3-D) printing, also known as additive manufacturing, provides a novel and cost-effective approach for implementing microwave devices. With the rapid advancement and improved manufacturing resolution of the 3-D printing technology, additive manufacturing has enabled the design and fabrication of electronic devices in higher terahertz (THz) frequency bands, contributing to bridging the gap between microwaves and photonics. Simultaneously, metalenses have garnered significant attention due to their ability to shape electromagnetic (EM) wavefronts. Metalens technology offers a promising solution for wave focusing, surpassing traditional dielectric lenses with advantages such as reduced weight and low loss, particularly at THz frequencies. In this article, we present an overview of the development of 3-D-printed THz metalenses, ranging from single metalenses to dual-layer and trilayer configurations. The functionality of the metalenses becomes more powerful, from replacing conventional light-focusing dielectric lenses for single-layer metalenses, achieving 2-D beam scanning, holographic imaging, and reconfigurable orbital angular momentum (OAM) for dual-layer metalenses, to enabling 3-D focus scanning for trilayer metalenses. We also discuss practical measurement technologies for THz metalenses and briefly outline the prospective to propel the 3-D-printed metalens technology forward.

In this article, we review the key concepts and the progress in the design of physical-layer aspects of in-band full-duplex (IBFD) communications. One of the fundamental challenges in realizing IBFD is self-interference that can be up to 100 dB stronger than signals of interest. Thus, we start by reviewing state-of-the-art research in self-interference cancellation, addressing both model-based and emerging machine learning-based methods. Then, we turn our attention to new wireless systems with many degrees of freedom for which the traditional IBFD designs do not gracefully scale and, hence, require many innovations to enable IBFD. We provide an extensive review of basic concepts and state of the art in massive multiple-input–multiple-output IBFD. Then, we consider the mmWave band IBFD and review advanced physical-layer architectures. The above review provides the proper context to discuss IBFD innovations and new challenges for sixth-generation networks and beyond, where wireless networks are envisioned to be multifunctional, combining communications with functions such as sensing, cognitive radios, physical-layer security, and wireless power transfer. We conclude this article with a status update on the adoption of IBFD in communication standards.

Ultradense cell-free massive multiple-input–multiple-output (CF-MMIMO) has emerged as a promising technology expected to meet the future ubiquitous connectivity requirements and ever-growing data traffic demands in sixth generation (6G). This article provides a contemporary overview of ultradense CF-MMIMO networks and addresses important unresolved questions on their future deployment. We first present a comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art research on CF-MMIMO and ultradense networks. Then, we discuss the key challenges of CF-MMIMO under ultradense scenarios such as low-complexity architecture and processing, low-complexity/scalable resource allocation, fronthaul limitation, massive access, synchronization, and channel acquisition. Finally, we answer key open questions, considering different design comparisons and discussing suitable methods dealing with the key challenges of ultradense CF-MMIMO. The discussion aims to provide a valuable roadmap for interesting future research directions in this area, facilitating the development of CF-MMIMO for 6G.

A comprehensive review of 3-D/4-D-printed reconfigurable metasurfaces (RMSs) is presented in this article. A metasurface (MS) demonstrates exceptional abilities for electromagnetic (EM) wave molding beyond that offered by conventional planar interfaces, and RMS provides MS with more diverse EM wave-control capabilities. RMSs are categorized by the type of external stimulus used for reconfiguration, such as electrical RMS, fluidic RMS, mechanical RMS, and thermal RMS. To implement these RMSs, it is important to understand the design and fabrication requirements as well as the EM characteristic of each RMS, including its advantages and disadvantages. In particular, except for electrical RMS, RMSs require complex 3-D structures or special materials that are difficult to implement with conventional subtractive manufacturing methods such as printed-circuit-board manufacturing. Recently, advanced 3-D/4-D printing technology has achieved high fabrication freedom and meets the design and fabrication requirements of each type of RMS. In this article, we introduce representative RMSs with the development of 3-D/4-D printing technology and materials. Furthermore, current issues of RMSs based on 3-D/4-D printing technology and future directions are described.
