We are approaching a wireless future, where everything around us becomes connected and increasingly intelligent. Access to wireless connectivity is becoming as essential to our lives as access to electricity and water. In this podcast, two renowned Swedish academics discuss current and future wireless technology, as well as its impact on society. Erik G. Larsson is an IEEE Fellow and Professor at Linköping University, Sweden. Emil Björnson is an IEEE Fellow and Professor at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. They have written several textbooks, received numerous scientific awards, published hundreds of papers, and hold tens of patents. They have a YouTube channel with 27k+ subscribers.

Many textbook models of communication systems assume that the transmitter and receiver are synchronized in time, frequency, and phase. Achieving and maintaining such synchronization is an often-overlooked practical challenge. However, the importance of synchronization grows as we plan to use larger antenna arrays and distributed MIMO in 6G. In this episode, Emil Björnson and Erik G. Larsson discuss some fundamental principles of synchronization, including the underlying physical phenomena, pilot signaling for phase synchronization, and reciprocity calibration. We especially discuss how the seemingly simplest angular beamforming can be among the hardest features to support from a synchronization perspective, with a digital array.
