This year we have assembled again an excellent and exciting conference program thanks to the commitment of the Technical Program and Organizing Committee members. We have received over 160 papers with authors from more than 30 Countries and Territories: 54% from Europe, Middle East and Africa, 32% from Asia/Pacific and 14% from North and South America.
After a rigorous review process, about 110 papers have been selected for poster presentation, a privileged presentation format of iWAT, allowing plenty of time for ample discussion with authors. We have also organized 8 convened plenary oral sessions, each one starting with a keynote talk by leading experts. These sessions, with about 40 presentations, cover a broad range of topics such as body-centric antennas, antennas on chip and integrated antennas, broadband and UWB antennas, small antennas and sensors, antenna measurement and validation, millimeter, sub-millimeter and THz antennas, new materials for antenna performance enhancement and MIMO antennas.
