Dear colleague,
please excuse if you receive multiple copies of this Call for Papers.
3. European Wireless Conference (EW2000)
is the follow-up event to European Wireless'99 that happened together
with the European Microwave Week'99, Oct. '99 in Munich, Germany.
The sponsors of the European Wireless Conferences are non-profit
organizations and so it turned out impossible to continue to have EW2000
and European Microwave Week 2000 together.
Instead the EMW has announced a new conference European Wireless
Technologies.
Please have a look at our list of international Programme Committee
members and consider to submit a paper to EW2000.
Sincerely
Bernhard Walke (Chair of EW99)

E u r o p e a n W i r e l e s s 2000
together with
7th European Conference on Fixed Radio Systems and Networks (ECRR 2000)
September 12 - 14, 2000, Dresden, Germany
(http://www/comnets.rwth-aachen.de/Wireless2000)
=======================================================================
The wireless and mobile communications scenario at the dawn of the new
millennium is characterised, among others, by an increasing demand for
high bit-rate services, multi-media applications and desire to
perceive and exercise a seamless and familiar communication space
irrespective of the media used and the operating environment. This is
combined with the tumultuous growth of possible applications ranging
from household/entertainment to business/finance sectors. Driven by
the high degree of mobility of the customer base, the need to maintain
communication expenses under control and the wide range of service
offerings, the end-user is developing an attitude whereby many aspects
of a communication dialogue are considered as temporary and/or subject
to negotiation, such as: the service quality, the way information is
delivered and displayed, the content/service provider, the network
operator, and even the information contents.
Obviously, to continue to exploit the market potential of a massive
demand from a steadily more sophisticated and mobile-aware customer
base, the requirements of access convenience and flexibility need to
be reconciled with efficient resource usage. Moreover, adequate
technology and operation strategies need to be developed to hide the
end-user the technicalities involved in inter-working the manifold of
systems and operation domains normally comprised in an end-to-end
connection between nomadic users moving and roaming globally.
While industry, research and standardisation have been responding to
the above challenges with the definition of new systems designed for
integrating the terrestrial and satellite based communication
infrastructure for the provision of universal service, other
challenges remain to be faced or begin to appear at the horizon. These
include: economical coexistence of - and transition between -
different generation of systems; advanced capabilities of network
components and features of mobile terminals; distribution of control,
access and coverage in hierarchically nested mobile systems to
accommodate user bases ranging within widely different scales;
flexible allocation of spectrum to different systems development of
Internet protocols to be able to handle the functions required from a
mobile core network.
European Wireless 2000, together with 7th European Conference on Fixed
Radio Systems and Networks (ECRR 2000), will primarily focus on
advancements and innovations in wireless and cellular narrowband and
broadband mobile radio and on mobility support of fixed networks to
provide a seamless communication space in a competitive operation
environment.
