IEEE International Wireless Symposium (IWS) 2014

The 2nd Annual International Wireless Symposium (IWS), sponsored by the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S), will be held in the historic city of X'ian, China. The first IWS in Beijing had a vibrant tradeshow with more than 2,000 attendees. IWS is an international event held annually in China and the ONLY event of its type sponsored by the IEEE in China. In it's second year, IWS has become the largest RF/Microwave symposium in China and the second largest conference sponsored by the IEEE MTT Society.

The focus is “everything that is wireless”, including mobile platforms, devices, personal area connectivity, and 4G/5G wireless. IWS brings together component, IC and system designers from leading international industries and academia. Patterned after the very famous MTT-S International Microwave Symposium (IMS), IWS 2014 will have a technical conference and a commercial exhibition. Because the marketplace for wireless technology, devices, and service is immense, the IWS will grow to be similar to the IMS. We expect to have more than 150 papers presented in multiple parallel tracks, with over a hundred industrial and other exhibitors. The papers presented at IWS will be archived in IEEE Xplore. IWS will rotate between several locations in China, but will be an international event with participants from all over the world. The exhibition will include worldwide manufacturers and service providers, with marketing happening in both directions: both into, and out from, China. The IWS is intended to attract attendees and exhibitors from all parts of the wireless community, and will become a major global wireless event!
