iWAT 2014 - 2014 International Workshop on Antenna Technology: Small Antennas, Novel EM Structures and Materials, and Applications

iWAT2014 - 2014 International Workshop on Antenna Technology:
Small Antennas, Novel EM Structures and Materials, and Applications
March 4-6, 2014, Sydney, Australia
The International Workshop on Antenna Technology (iWAT) is an
annual forum for the exchange of information on the research
and development of innovative antenna technologies. At iWAT2014,
all the oral presentations are delivered by invited prominent
researchers, and the other accepted papers are presented as
posters. The authors of the posters have the opportunity to
interact with other leading researchers in their fields and
win the best paper awards! iWAT will be held at Sydney’s
beautiful Darling Harbour. Interesting social activities are
being planned.
The topics of interest include but are not limited to the
following:
Small Antennas
Adaptive (smart) arrays
Antennas on/in IC packages
Arrays
Broadband antennas
Conformal antennas
Embedded antennas
MEMS/Nano technology for antennas
Millimetre Wave and THz antennas
Modelling and simulations
Miniaturization of antennas
