Loughborough Antennas & Propagation Conference 2010

LAPC is now in its 6th year and is continuing to grow in popularity.

To maximise the opportunity for productive networking, we will continue the successful format of a series of high-grade Keynote Speaker talks followed by open poster sessions co-located with high quality exhibitors. With no parallel oral sessions you miss nothing! Special posters providing information on the research activities of participating academic research groups will also be included this year.

As always LAPC will be a cost effective opportunity for the presentation, discussion and promotion of the very highest level developments and research in the Antennas and Propagation fields.
