EuCAP 2010 - the 4th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation

EuCap 2010, the 4th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation, will be held in Barcelona during 12-16 April 2010. Abstract Submission Deadline: 30th September

Following the success of previous editions, the European Association on Antennas and Propagation (EurAAP) is pleased to announce the 4th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation, EuCAP 2010, to be held in Barcelona, Spain, on 12-16 April 2010.

EuCAP 2010, supported by the top level Associations in Antennas & Propagation, provides, through its presentations and exhibition, the ideal place for the exchange of scientific and technical information, both at academic and industrial levels, and fosters collaboration and cooperation in the Antenna & Propagation domain both at European and global levels.

The conference combines the following formats:

- Plenary sessions with invited keynote papers
- Oral sessions, workshops, short courses
- Posters
- Exhibition

The number of convened sessions will be balanced to keep the conference open for interesting submissions. Posters will be presented in a large central area to attract the attention of participants and to foster fruitful technical discussions.
Important Dates

Abstract submission - 30th September 2009
Notification of acceptance - 30th November 2009
Submission of final papers - 30th January 2010
