Objective:
The 12th. URSI Forum (“Broadband Communications”) is offering a meeting opportunity to all European researchers preparing a PhD in the different scientific fields covered by URSI (International Union of Radio Science - Union Radioscientifique Internationale). Researchers with a PhD are also welcome to present significant advances in their postdoctoral research. The meeting offers to them and to the academic and scientific staff of universities and institutes a unique opportunity to be informed about the different research programmes in Radio Science.
Organisation:
Following evaluation of previous editions of the URSI Forum, the structure of the Forum will mainly consist of Poster Sessions (contributions will be placed in the relevant URSI session). The Forum will be preceded by a lecture by Ir J.C. POINT, Consultant, on : “Broadband communications for all : state of the art, what is happening now ?”. Some formal presentations of final year doctorandi are also planned.
Submission of abstracts:
The contributions will be evaluated by the Scientific Program Committee. For a final year PhD project or a follow up project, the evaluation will be based on a summary (maximum 3 pages) of the project to be submitted by the applicant.
