Overview:

The annual IEEE International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC) is one of the premier conferences in the wireless research arena and has a long history of bringing together academia, industry and regulatory bodies. Today, it has become one of IEEE ComSoc's flagship conferences in telecommunications.

The 19th edition of PIMRC will be held from 15-18 September 2008 in glamorous Cannes, French Riviera, France, at the "Palais des Festivals de Cannes" where traditionally the Cannes Film Festival is being held. With Cannes being one of the most charming places on earth, we expect this to be a truly special conference. For more details, please, visit www.pimrc2008.org.

Focus:

PIMRC 2008 will provide a global forum for presenting the most recent advances, the future technical challenges and business opportunities that comprise the contemporary landscape in wireless communications. The organizers endeavour to attract contributions covering not only conventional areas of wireless communications (e.g., physical layer), but also emerging areas with high potential for essential scientific and societal impact such as wireless sensors for biomedical applications, non-trivial pervasive computing services and ambient technologies. The latter areas are expected to facilitate the development of a broad vision of innovative future applications in wireless communications. The high quality IEEE endorsed technical programme, will also include tutorials, workshops, exhibitions, panel discussions and keynote presentations from leading experts coming from the academic community, industry, as well as regulatory and standardisation bodies.

Call for Papers:

Authors are invited to submit high-quality papers describing original and previously unpublished contributions in a wide range of topics in wireless communications. These topics are clustered into the following four major categories: * Fundamentals & Physical Layer * MAC & Cross-Layer Design * Mobile and Wireless Networks * Applications, Services & Business Approach

Papers should be in English, strictly not exceeding 5 double-column pages. Authors should use the relevant IEEE template, ensuring an IEEE Xplorer compatible PDF-format. Important dates are: * full papers: 3 March 2008 * acceptance notice: 1 May 2008 * final manuscript: 2 June 2008 * presentation: 16-18 September 2008
