The aim of this symposium is to provide a forum for researchers and technologists to present new ideas and contributions in the form of Technical Papers, Special Sessions, Workshops, Tutorials, Keynote Talks, Panel discussions, as well as real-world evaluation in the field of wireless communica-tions, networking and signal processing. This 14th symposium will bring together wireless communication systems develo-pers to discuss the current status, technical challenges, standards, fundamental issues, and future services and applications.

All papers accepted and presented at regular sessions will be published in the conference proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore (pending approval)
