Welcome to IEEE MAPE2013

Welcome to MAPE2013The 5th IEEE International Symposium on Microwave, Antenna, Propagation, and EMC Technologies for Wireless Communications (MAPE 2013):

The 5th IEEE International Symposium on Microwave, Antenna, Propagation, and EMC Technologiesfor Wireless Communications (MAPE2013) will be held in Chengdu,China during October 29 to 31, 2013.The Symposium will take place in celebration of the information era milestone. The aim of the Symposium is to provide a multidiscipline forum for engineers and scientists in the fields of microwave, antenna, propagation, and EMC technologies to focus on applications in the ever-growing area of wireless communications. The topics of the symposium will cover all of the interesting theory and techniques of microwaves, antennas, propagation, and EMC necessary for wireless communications.

The symposium is sponsored by the IEEE Beijing Section, the IEEE AP Society and Beijing Jiaotong University, and technically co-sponsored by the IEEE ED Society, IEEE SP Society and Southwest Jiaotong University. You are cordially invited to summit papers to this important event in engineering and science and to meet colleagues from around the world in 2013 in China, where there are more potential challenges and opportunities for communications engineering, science, and technology.
