Presenting the 21st IEEE International Symposium on Antenna Technology and Applied Electromagnetics (ANTEM 2027) in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. This flagship conference of IEEE Region 7 brings together the global electromagnetic engineering community to showcase innovations across antenna design, electromagnetic theory, RF & microwave systems, metamaterials, THz technologies, 5G/6G networks, bioelectromagnetics, wireless power transfer, and their applications. ANTEM 2027 convenes leading researchers, engineers, and industry innovators presenting cutting-edge research through technical presentations, workshops, plenary sessions, and an industry exhibition. With eight technical tracks featuring computational electromagnetics, advanced measurement techniques, and AI/ML methods, the symposium addresses today’s critical challenges and tomorrow’s opportunities. Kelowna’s stunning valley setting provides an inspiring backdrop for advancing electromagnetic science and applications. Our theme, “Waves Rise from the Valley” reflects the innovation emerging from this region to shape the wireless future. ANTEM 2027 is seeking high quality submissions for papers on, but not limited to, the following areas.
