Call For Papers
The 2018 IEEE Topical Conference on RF/Microwave Power Amplifiers for Radio
and Wireless Applications (PAWR2018) will be a part of 2018 IEEE Radio and
Wireless Week (RWW2018) which will be held the week of 14 January 2018 in
Phoenix, AZ.
RWW2018 will also feature:
ɐ IEEE Radio and Wireless Symposium (RWS)
ɐ 18th Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems
(
(SiRF)
)
ɐ IEEE Topical
p
Conference on Wireless Sensors and Sensor Networks ((WiSNet))
ɐ Focus sessions on 5G and MM-Wave to THz Technologies and Applications
ɐ IEEE Topical Workshop on the Internet of Space (TWIOS)
Each of these events will be organized separately, with their own call for papers found

Power amplifiers are often the most critical component of RF/microwave communications
systems and consequently the focus of intense research to achieve increased linearity and
power efficiency. New forms of power amplification are being developed to meet the needs
of the wireless communication equipment industry and the world's demand for greater
information transmission. PAWR2017 will feature tracks on RF/microwave Power Amplifiers.
Papers featuring innovative work are solicited in (but not limited to) the following areas of
RF/microwave power amplifier technology:
ɐ High Power/Wideband Active Devices
