 About iWAT 2010
 
iWAT 2010 is organized by Instituto de Telecomunicações, Instituto Superior Técnico – Technical University of Lisbon, co-sponsored by IEEE Portugal Section, and technically co- sponsored by IEEE AP-S, IET and the University of Liverpool.

iWAT 2010 continues the successful format from previous editions. It is structured around eight keynote addresses by distinguished speakers, followed by oral and poster sessions. Poster sessions play a major role in iWAT format, with ample time for direct contact and lively discussion with authors. A prize will be awarded to the Best Student Paper. The Workshop includes an industrial panel session where antenna design challenges ahead will be addressed by leading experts that bridge between the industrial perspective and the academia. All oral sessions are plenary.

Papers are peer reviewed and those effectively presented at the Workshop (oral and poster) will be Included in the iWAT 2010 compilation for the IEEE Xplorer.

Exhibitor booths are located in the coffee break halls, side by side with the auditorium and the poster rooms.

iWAT 2010 closes a sequence of Workshops and international meetings on Microwave and Antennas to be held in Portugal from Feb 22nd to March 3rd:
Consider joining us in Portugal, a trusted destination in Europe, with its almost 9 centuries of history that includes the epic discoveries of “new worlds” in the 15th century, with a wealth of monuments and archeological remains that date back to at least the times of the Roman Empire, with a mild sunny weather and friendly people.
