The 2010 IEEE International Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics

Microwave Photonics is an inter-disciplinary field that studies the interactions between microwave and optical waves for generation, processing, control and distribution of microwave, millimeter-wave and THz signals in the optical domain. Microwave photonics technologies can find many applications such as in high-speed wireless communications networks, radar, sensors, and modern instrumentation. The 2010 International Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics (MWP 2010) is to provide an exciting forum for researchers to exchange new findings and developments in the area of microwave photonics. MWP 2010 is now soliciting papers for the conference.

Sample sessions as follows:

• High speed and broadband photonic devices: lasers, detectors, modulators, etc.
• High‐speed optical analogue to digital conversion
• Hybrid and chip level integration of photonics devices
• Optically controlled electromagnetic wave synthesis, from microwave to THz
• Signal processing and techniques for optical spectra synthesis
• Wired, wireless and cellular radio systems and networks
• Optical control of array antennas
• Tera-Hertz waves and system applications
• Microwave and millimeter‐wave optical signal generation techniques
• Optical processing and control of high speed analog and digital signals
• Photonic technologies for wireless communications including MIMO and UWB systems, etc.
