The IEEE International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS) positions itself as a recognised and dynamic forum for researchers and technologists to present and discuss original ideas in all fields related to wireless communication systems. Topics of interest ------------------ Authors are invited to submit papers that are not currently under review by another journal or conference. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * 3G, 4G and beyond systems * Antenna and RF subsystems * Coding, modulation and equalization * Convergence of wireless systems * Cross-layer design and optimisation * Audio / video on wireless networks * Experimental systems and field trials * Fixed and nomadic wireless access * Generic access networks (GANs) * Heterogeneous wireless networking * Intelligent transportation systems * Location and positioning * MIMO * Mobility management * Modelling, analysis and simulation * QoS in wireless networks / systems * Radio interfaces and technologies * Radio resource management * Relaying and user cooperation * RFID * Satellite & high altitude systems * Security/privacy in wireless systems * Service and middleware platforms * DSP for wireless systems * Software radio / cognitive radio * Space-time coding and diversity * Spectrum sharing and coexistence * Traffic control and engineering * UWB * Wireless access techniques * Wireless ad-hoc networks * Wireless networks and systems * Wireless comm. & net. in ITS * Wireless / Mobile Internet * Wireless LANs and PANs * Wireless mesh networks * Wireless network architectures * Wireless net. information theory * Wireless propagation and channel modelling * Wireless switching and routing * Wireless sensor networks * Wireless services and applications Submissions ----------- Both extended abstracts and full papers are welcome. For extended abstracts, the length should not be longer than 2 pages, and for full papers, not more than 5 pages (in IEEE two-column format, 10pt). Papers must be submitted electronically via TrackChair (http://iswcs2007.trackchair.com/). All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed for their quality, correctness, originality, and relevance. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by the IEEE and will be included in the IEEE Xplore digital library. Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit their extended versions for inclusion in a planned special journal issue. Tutorial Proposals ------------------ Proposals for Tutorial are also being solicited and should be sent, together with a one page summary and the presenter's biography, to the Tutorial Chair (e-mail: pal.orten@research.nera.no).
