Power amplifiers (PAs) are important building blocks in military and commercial wireless communication devices and radar. As signal modulation schemes of the carrier become increasingly spectrally efficient, the requirements on the PA become difficult. The IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques invites manuscript submissions for a special issue on PAs.

Call for Papers: 2012 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium
The IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society’s 2012 International Microwave Symposium (IMS2012) will be held on June 17-22, 2012 in Montréal, Canada as the centerpiece of Microwave Week 2012. IMS2012 offers technical sessions, interactive forums, plenary and panel sessions, workshops, short courses, industrial exhibits, application seminars, historical exhibits, and a wide array of other technical and social activities including a guest program. Co-located with IMS2012 are the RFIC symposium (www.rfic2012.org) and the ARFTG conference (www.arftg.org), which comprise the Microwave Week 2012 technical program. With over 12,000 attendees and over 800 industrial exhibits of the latest state-of-the-art microwave products, Microwave Week is the world’s largest gathering of Radio Frequency (RF) and microwave professionals and the most important forum for the latest and most advanced research in the area.
More information including the complete Call-for-Papers is available through IMS2012 website at http://ims2012.mtt.org
Paper submission deadline: 5 December, 2011
