The workshop “Challenges and Opportunities in Wireless Location Privacy” focuses on the technical challenges of ensuring location privacy in future 6G networks, where advanced sensing and connectivity make user data increasingly exposed. Discussions will center on emerging privacy risks in mobility and spatial data, and on the development of novel technical methods to safeguard users while maintaining system performance and functionality. Bringing together leading researchers, the workshop aims to identify key open problems and outline promising research directions for achieving strong privacy guarantees in next-generation wireless systems.
Date and Time: Tuesday 16 December 2025, 08:30-14:00
