The scientific and technical work planned in 6G-ICARUS is organized in five scientific WPs (WP1, WP2, WP3, WP4, and WP5) that are focused on theconceptual and formal development of technical solutions.

WP1 will explore novel AI-controlled metasurface- based RISs will be developed for operation in the mmWave andsubTHz bands. Novel ML/DL algorithms will also bedeveloped, as they are essential for the operation and control of RISs. These structures will be implemented to enhance coverage of 6G BSs.

WP2 will focus on topics of mmWave/subTHz comms such as channel modelling, smart city applications, autonomous driving of high-speed trains, andmultipath and interference mitigation

WP3 will establish strong collaborations in developing solutions for MCon, AI-based spectrum sensing, and AI- based interference management by utilising their extensive experience and knowledge in RATs and AI.

WP4 will develop case studies, PoC, and prototypes to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the solutions proposed in WPs 1-3.

WP5 serves as a cohesive link between all research activities planned in WP1, WP2, and WP3.
