IMS 2021 : IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium

IMS will be a hybrid conference — both face-to-face and virtual. We are 100% committed to our authors to give them the opportunity and forum to publish and present their work in a manner they feel most comfortable. Authors of the papers selected for presentation at IMS2021 may elect to present either live or virtually upon final submission of the manuscripts. Microwave Week, with more than 8000 participants and 600 industrial exhibits of state-of-the-art microwave products, is the world’s largest gathering of radio-frequency (RF) and microwave professionals encompassing MHz to THz ranges and is the most important forum for the latest research advances and practices in the field. IMS2021 offers something for everyone, including the following:
● Technical Program — Oral/Poster Sessions, Workshops, Technical Lectures, and Panel/Rump Sessions
● Connected Future Summit (formerly 5G Summit) showcasing the next-generation wireless technologies for mobility, V2X and IoT
● RF Bootcamp intended for students, engineers, and managers from non-microwave engineering disciplines
● Job Fair for students offering employment opportunities within our exhibitor community
● Exhibitor workshops and application seminars featuring presentations by the preeminent technologists from our exhibitors, explaining the tech­nology behind their products
● Special small business/entrepreneurs’ area on the exhibitor floor
