The final programme for the next ARMMS RF & Microwave Society conference has been announced, with the development and implementation of millimeter wave (mmWave) 5G technology at the fore of the ANSYS-sponsored event, taking place 13–14 November 2017 at Wyboston Lakes, Bedfordshire, U.K.

In addition to mmWave 5G, the programme covers a wide range of subjects that address key areas of activity in the RF and microwave sector, offered by a healthy mix of academic and industry presenters:

As well as being a platform for the latest technology to be discussed, each twice yearly ARMMS conference provides an important networking opportunity. A highlight of each meeting is the society dinner, which takes place on Monday evening and provides an invaluable opportunity to meet like-minded colleagues.

As always, the conference will be complemented by a small commercial exhibition.
