Wireless Communication and Radar

Modern devices and electronic gadgets owe their existence due to technology advancement in key areas of Electromagnetics and RF/Microwave Engineering. Modern radio sets & radio broadcasting, real time video transmission through satellites, speed monitoring radars to space borne imaging radars, sophisticated avionics to what has become a necessity of contemporary times, cellular communications all stem from advancement in RF & Microwave Engineering.

The Wireless Communication and Radar track of IBCAST offers a broad coverage of topics related to RF & Microwave technology making it a premier event in this area for scientific and educational community. Our endeavor is to promote research and bring academia and industry closer to bridge the technology gap.

This track also provides technology coverage related to modern radar systems. Topics related to systems and applications are covered such as Antenna systems, Transmit-receive modules (TRMs), Digital beamforming, Complex waveform generation, Clutter suppression, Micro-doppler processing, Radar imaging and Object classification utilizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) etc. Another salient feature of this year's activity is special session on “Design challenges of modern multifunction AESA Radars”.
