The World Wireless Congress (WWC) in USA, World Mobile
Congress (WMC) in Europe, Global Mobile Congress (GMC) in China and
Fourth Generation Mobile Forum (4GMF) worldwide have jointly announced
this "Call for Scientific and Research Papers" to
promote the international collaborations amongst the fellow researchers,
students, engineers, scientists and technologists in the field of
advanced wireless and mobile communications. All the accepted papers
will be published in the conference proceedings as well as submitted to EI Compendex
with selected qualified papers to be further submitted to SCI index and IEEE
special issues.
The 2009 congress theme is "Convergence
of IMT, WiMax and LTE technologies for the 4G mobile
communications". This theme explores the synergism between the various
dimensions of wireless communications: The continued convergence of
broadband wireless systems and mobile cellular networks has pushed the
wireless infrastructure and architecture from the proprietary solution
to a more open platform to meet the rapidly increasing demand of open
service and mobility infrastructure. This transition has created
tremendous opportunities for higher-performance wireless circuits,
systems and networks, creating cost-effective solutions for ubiquitous
wireless communications, computation, sensing, signal processing,
consumer electronics and multimedia. However, the advent of the open-era
has blurred the traditional boundaries between the multi-dimensions of
wireless innovation: spectrum, technology, performance, devices,
circuits and system architecture. In fact, innovation in wireless
communications requires an intricate balance between advances in
frequency, process, circuit, architecture and system technology covering
primarily on radio frequency (RF), base-band, networks and applications.
The objective of these conferences is
to gather the research and development papers in this field and present
an overview of the-state-of-the-art of this B3G/4G storm - globally or
locally, as well as perspectives on future development in order to
promote future research activities as well as business strategies.

B3G and 4G systems and networks such as WiMax, LTE, CDMA/TDMA/OFDM,
Open Wireless Architecture
