2009 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC 2009)

IEEE WCNC is the premier wireless event for wireless communications
researchers, industry professionals, and academics interested in the latest development and design of wireless systems and networks. Sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society, IEEE WCNC has a long history of bringing together industry, academia, and regulatory bodies.

In 2009, IEEE WCNC will be held in Budapest, Hungary 5- 8 April 2009, the pearl of the Danube. You are invited to submit papers in all areas of wireless communications, networks, services, and applications.

The review deadline is November 25, 2008.
