Event Description
The Connecting Tomorrow Conference is organised by the Luxembourg Department of Media, Telecommunications and Digital Policy
Octobre 5-7, 2021
Live @LuxExpo ’The Box’, Luxembourg-Kirchberg and online
Following the two successful conferences focusing on 5G, the department of Media, Telecommunications and Digital Policy is pleased to announce a third conference, covering many communications-related topics from 5G to broadband technologies and beyond (quantum key distribution, 6G,…).,
Each conference day is split into two parts. The morning sessions are filled with panel discussions, keynote speakers and Q&A's evolving around different headlines for each day. Workshops that allow the participants to deep dive into specific subjects will be held in smaller settings during the afternoons. Furthermore, an exhibition area will be accessible all day long.
The following headlines will be broached during the AM sessions:

The following headlines will be broached during the AM sessions:
Tuesday, October 5: Enabling Greater Connectivity:
Why do we need connectivity? How does connectivity affect our lives? Which innovations drive our every day life?
Wednesday, October 6: Sustainable Connectivity:
How can communication technologies work on their ecological footprint? And how, in return, can communication technologies help developing a sustainable society? Which opportunities arise through modern communication technologies like 5G with regard to a more inclusive digital society?
Thursday, October 7: Enabling the Connectivity of Tomorrow:
What are the latest innovations in terms of future communication network and a more efficient use of spectrum? Which opportunities lie ahead through combining different technologies?

This workshop will explain the European context and its high performance connectivity ambitions with the intervention of Mr Lefebvre of the European commission: what is the Compass 2030 and how will it be implemented. Then, the SMC broadband team will provide more details and the background about the new national strategy 2021-2025. The highly interactive and moderated session aims to involve the audience for discussing the strategy’s implementation steps and any complementing measures as well as to discover the European Context in an informal setting.

Part 1 : Starting with the simplest design of an antenna – the dipole - the workshop offers the opportunity to be familiarized with the theory of radio magnetic waves. The reflective and directive elements will be added to the dipole step by step. The interaction of the added elements will lead to a fully functional Yagi antenna. The how and why these elements lead to an excellent gain and directiveness will lead to an intuitive understanding of this type of antenna.
Part 2: In this workshop we offer hands-on experience with microwaves. The mechanical slotted line offers a unique feedback to the user and allows him to measure the wavelength on a linear scale. Furthermore, the slotted line techniques provide information to allow calculation of a load impedance. So, the data obtained from the slotted line system will be drawn on a Smith Chart. The necessity in high frequency domain (and others) to handle with complex numbers is explained at physical level.

This workshop intents to inform about possibilities to inject and distribute the signals of the actual PPDR network RENITA into a building. The goal of the workshop is that all public actors and building owners in the domain of building security understand the importance of a PPDR coverage and receive the necessary information to start implementation projects. The workshop also looks into the future of NG PPDR networks and the impact on inhouse solutions.
