The emergence of quantum computers poses a significant threat to current
cryptographic standards. Integrating PQC and quantum communications into 6G
networks is critical to ensuring these applications remain secure and
resilient to quantum attacks. The  Postquantum Cryptography and Quantum
Communication for 6G Networks (6GQ)  special track  invites original
research and review papers that push the boundaries of knowledge in
post-quantum cryptography (PQC), quantum communication, and their
integration into 6G networks. We encourage submissions that address
theoretical developments, practical implementations, and innovative
applications in these areas.



Authors are solicited to contribute to the  special track  by submitting
articles that illustrate research results, projects, surveying works and
industrial experiences that describes significant advances in the following
areas, but are not limited to:

·       Quantum key distribution (QKD) and its role in securing quantum
communication in 6G.

·       Quantum-Resistant Security Protocols for 6G

·       Implementation and Standardization of PQC in Telecommunications

·       Quantum Communication Technologies for 6G

·       Simulations and Performance Evaluations of PQC in 6G

·       Case studies on the implementation of PQC and quantum communication
in telecommunication networks

·       Challenges and solutions in integrating PQC into 6G architectures

·       Overview of post-quantum cryptographic algorithms suitable for 6G
applications

·       Standardization efforts and regulatory considerations for
quantum-resistant 6G networks



Authors are invited to submit papers describing original, previously
unpublished work, not currently under review by another conference,
workshop, or journal. There are a number of tracks that are designed to
improve interactions of experts over different stages in research
development.



Accepted papers of the special track will be part of the IEEE LCN
proceedings and IEEE Xplore. All published papers must include title,
complete contact information for all authors, abstract, and keywords on the
cover page. IEEE reserves the right to remove papers from IEEE Xplore that
are not presented at the conference.



*** Paper submission ***

Technical papers can be up to 6 pages 10 pt font in IEEE format, including
tables, figures, and references. Papers must be registered on EDAS and
submitted in PDF format via: https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=32348

Direct your questions to Program Chairs: Abdullah Aydeger (aaydeger at fit.edu)
and Engin Zeydan (ezeydan at cttc.es).
