The annual IEEE Wireless and Microwave Technology Conference (WAMICON 2026) plans an engaging program in Clearwater, Florida in April 2026. 2026 marks the 27th year anniversary of WAMICON which addresses multidisciplinary research and technology trends in RF, Microwaves, and Wireless Communications. The program includes both oral and poster presentations as well as workshops, tutorials and special sessions. Clearwater provides a convenient location to the Tampa International Airport (TPA) and the West Coast of Florida. We invite prospective authors to submit original and high-quality work for presentation at WAMICON 2026 and publication in IEEE Xplore. Conference website is www.wamicon.org
