Call for Papers
12th European Wireless Conference (EW2006) Enabling Technologies for Wireless Multimedia Communications April 2-5, 2006, Athens, Greece National Technical University of Athens http://www.telecom.ece.ntua.gr/EW2006
Wireless communications is today one of the most dynamic sectors of our global economy. The introduction of third generation mobile communications is no longer imminent but incident in Europe, and throughout the world. At the same time, research for wireless communication systems beyond the third generation is in full swing.
The 12th European Wireless 2006 Conference continues its long tradition in promoting the latest technical results in wireless communications and focuses on technologies, protocols, services and applications that will enable a full seamless and nomadic user access to new classes of multimedia services with a user-centric focus. Service provision will occur at the home, at the workplace, at leisure and during travel. The vision is to integrate the wireless local area and next generation cellular networks and develop the next generation of future wireless communication. Such networks will enable the provision of ubiquitous wireless services, which will become more and more innovative as they are driven by the consumer demands of the user and as a result of competition between the service providers.
The main theme chosen for the European Wireless 2006 Conference, will be the technical challenges which need to be met in order to make the vision of Wireless Multimedia Communications a reality.
EW2006 will be hosted by National Technical University of Athens in Athens, Greece, on April 2-5, 2006.
