CALL FOR PAPERS

[Scope]

In wireless communication networks, antenna, which is used for radio signal transmission and receiving, is performing as one of the key components. With increasing demands of mobile users, the higher data rate and seamless coverage are expected. Therefore, the antenna technique draws more and more attentions, because it determines the coverage of radio networks and QoS of diverse traffic flows. Currently, there are different radio network deployment scenarios, such as hot-spot coverage, indoor coverage and so on, in which diverse antenna system design methodologies and techniques are adopted. To fully realize the potential of antenna technologies and to solve the problems of antenna application, there is a need to draw the attention of the research community for developing advanced and innovative methodologies, techniques of antenna related fields. The purpose of this international workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers from both academia and industry to have a forum for discussion and technical presentations on the recent advances in both the methodological aspects and the novel applications of antenna.

[Topics]

In line with above objectives, original contributions are solicited in topics of interest including, but not limited to, the following: -Advanced antenna design and manufacturing techniques -Evaluation methodology of antenna quality -Key quality indicator for antenna performance -Antenna performance influence for mobile communication networks -Antenna Quality Control Mechanisms -Smart antenna for WCDMA -MIMO -Radio Channel Modeling -Remote electric tilt control antenna -Active antenna system -Small-scaled antenna -Multi-system antenna -Indoor distributed antenna system for LTE -Antenna test fields and equipments requirement and standardization -Other Radio Frequency related topics

[Paper submission]

The paper must be written in English, and the length should be up to 6 pages. Previously published work may not be submitted, nor may the work be concurrently submitted to any other conference or journal. Such papers will be rejected without review. The paper submissions must follow the IEEE formatting guidelines, which can be found in the web site: http://chinacom.org/show/initial-submission Papers should be submitted through EAI 'Confy' system at Confy, and have to comply with the IEEE format (see Author's kit section). Before submitting the paper please sign up for EAI user account at eai.eu. (After signing up you will receive a confirmation email with an activation link. You need to follow the link to activate your EAI membership.)

[Publication]
