Upcoming events

As co-chair of the  “Student paper award” , I would like your encourage young researchers to propose a paper at the IEEE Radio and Wireless Symposium (RWS 2009) that will be held in San Diego, CA, on 16 – 23 January 2009 as part of the Radio Wireless Week technical event.

Topics include but are not limited to:

The 2009 IEEE Radio and Wireless Symposium (RWS 2009) will be held at the Omni Hotel, San Diego, CA, on 18 - 22 January 2009 as part of the Radio Wireless Week technical event. In addition to oral presentations and posters, RWS 2009 includes workshops, panels, and an exhibition. Others collocating in the event are the Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems (SiRF)
and the IEEE Topical Workshop on Power Amplifiers for Wireless Communications (PA Symposium).

Photonics West includes the entire spectrum of light-driven technologies and attracts researchers and product developers from around the world. Four renowned symposia, 3,000 R&D presentations, and two robust exhibitions connect the brightest minds with leaders in science and technology.

Organizer(s):
Directors: A. Consortini, R.P. Singh, S. Svanberg.
Local Organizer: J. Niemela
