COMCAS 2011 continues the tradition of providing a multidisciplinary forum for the exchange of ideas in the areas of microwaves, antennas, communications, solid state integrated circuits, sensing and electronic systems engineering. The conference re-visits the venue which has proven to be attractive and enjoyable, with many opportunities for networking, candid exchange of ideas and the building of a strong sense of community.
This year we will continue to expand the program to include RF and microwave photonics, biomedical technologies, cognitive radios and networks, radio frequency identification, electron devices and photonic means for IC inspection among other topics.

A diverse assembly of researchers, engineers and scientists will be invited to present their ideas and discuss new results, providing a unique opportunity for attendees to view a variety of interesting and innovative technologies in one location. Invited papers and tutorial talks from international experts will be presented in key topical areas. In 2010, Tel Aviv has been named the third-best city in the Middle East & Africa by Travel + Leisure magazine, and the ninth-best beach city in the world by National Geographic. Tel Aviv’s White City, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2003, comprises the world’s largest concentration of Modernist-style buildings. We do hope that you will come to exciting and vibrant Tel Aviv, Israel in November 2011 to participate in the 3rd Annual IEEE COMCAS.

Original manuscripts are solicited in research areas related to microwaves, antennas, communications, integrated circuits, Solid State Circuits, EMC, Electron Devices and electronic systems including, but not limited to the following: Active and Passive MW Components, RFICs, MMICs, Low Power Solid State Circuits, RF Photonics, Microwave Plasmonics, Novel Antennas, Spectrum Data Base Issues, Phased Arrays, Sensors and Sensor Systems, Radars, Wireless and Cellular Communications, C3/C4 Modeling Simulation & Analysis (MS&A), RF Propagation to MMW Wavelengths, High Power Amplifiers, Advanced Devices for Communications, MW GaAs and GaN technologies, RF Filters, Modeling for EMC, MW Packaging and Interconnects, MEMs, Ultra-wide Band Technology, Metrology and Parameter Extraction, Space-time Adaptive Processing, Cognitive Radios/Radar and Spectral Processing; Power management of Integrated Circuits and Devices.
