2010 Loughborough Antennas & Propagation Conference
8-9 November 2010
Papers are invited for the sixth Loughborough Antennas & Propagation Conference (LAPC), being held at the University in November.
LAPC 2010 will feature invited talks from world experts, research posters, a technical exhibition, free computer simulation workshops and excellent networking opportunities for attendees. Taking place from 8 - 9 November, it will be held in Burleigh Court, the University's four star Hotel.
The conference is run for the good of the electromagnetic community with a not-for-profit ethos, enabling the cost of attending the event to be kept to a minimum. This year the Technical Programme for LAPC is being organised by Christian-Albrechts University of Kiel, Germany and University of Kent.
The conference will include special sessions on:
* Antennas and propagation in the built environment
* Personal and Body Area Network propagation
* Advanced wireless communication antenna technology
* New EM modelling and measurement techniques
Papers for the conference are now invited. Submissions should be made via the conference website, www.lapconf.co.uk. The deadline for submissions is 1st June 2010
