Horizon House Publications and Microwave Journal announce that their annual RF/microwave, EMC/EMI and high-speed digital Electronic Design Conference and exhibition, EDI CON, is expanding into the U.S. market after three successful events in Beijing, China.

We are putting the finishing touches on our Flagship IMS April issue--your comprehensive guide to the Microwave Week in Phoenix! The issue will be distributed in the delegate bags and will also be available at the Microwave Journal Booth #2331. The cover feature chronicles the rise of Motorola in Phoenix, including the history, culture and successful spin-offs that helped shape the high tech industry in the area. It is a very interesting story written by a Motorola/Freescale insider, Leonard Pelletier (aka RF Leonard). The issue will also cover the IMS conferences, exhibition and special sessions as well as technical features about many new developments in the industry.

The microwave industry kicks into high gear in February with a full tradeshow schedule for the next few months. In February, we have events such as the International Solid State Circuits Conference, Military Radar Summit and National Association of Tower Erectors (NATE). March features Mobile World Congress, Electromagnetic Compatibility and Signal Integrity (EMCSI), Satellite, International Wireless Communications Expo (IWCE) and GOMACTech. Then April goes around the world featuring EDI CON China, Microwave & RF in France, Wireless and Microwave Technology Conference (WAMICON) and AUVSI Unmanned Systems.
