The Institute of Communications Engineering (IKT) of the University of Hannover, and its partners IEEE Vehicular Technology Society, IEEE Communications Society Germany Chapter, VDE ITG, PULSERS and IHK Hannover are proud to announce the 4th Workshop on Positioning, Navigation and Communication 2007 (WPNC'07), which will take place at the University of Hannover, Germany, 22 March 2007, right after CeBIT'07.
### Scope ### Mobile position-aware systems, combined with modern wireless technologies, are getting more and more important. When developing systems of this kind, problems in various fields of information and communication technology need to be solved. The workshop shall give an overview of state-of-the-art approaches and systems. As many technologies are available to deal with the variety of applications, we would like to continue to cover ultra-wideband technology as it is becoming of great importance in the area of positioning, navigation and communication.
### Topics ### You are invited to submit papers presenting scientific work or practical implementations addressing, but not limited to the following topics: * Positioning * Outdoor-Radio Systems (terrestrial & satellite-based) * Indoor-Positioning * Hybrid Approaches * Navigation * Pedestrian Navigation * Vehicle and Robot Navigation * Communication and Services * Integrated Positioning and Communication * Location Based Services * Application Scenarios * Ultra-Wideband * Positioning and Localization * Architectures, Systems, Protocols * Hybrid Positioning and Communication * Regulatory Issues, EMC/EMI
### Submission Guidelines ### Full-paper or poster submissions in the form of extended abstracts or full papers are requested electronically in PDF-format in English language until Nov. 26, 2006. Paper submission is handled only through the TrackChair paper review system at http://wpnc07.trackchair.com. With acceptance, complete contributions of up to 10 pages are expected until Feb. 16, 2007.
### Important Dates ### Submission of Extended Abstracts until: Nov. 26, 2006 Notification of acceptance or denial until: Jan. 08, 2007 Submission of Camera Ready Manu-scripts until: Feb. 16, 2007
### Publishing ### The workshop proceedings in book-form will be published in the series Hannoversche Beiträge zur Nachrichtentechnik by SHAKER publishing. In addition, an application to publish in the IEEE Xplore database has been filed.
