What is it?

The inaugural Wireless Winter School (WWS) is for students and researchers, who are interested in Wireless Communications and Signal Processing. Its goal is to present leading-edge topics, which are at the core of modern communication systems.

What does it cover?

The School comprises a combination of half and full day tutorials together with invited talks from leading experts. This intensive week-long series of short courses and talks is designed to make maximum use of your time with us. It also provides our expert presenters with the opportunity to demonstrate leading research and to teach contemporary techniques that are in use across the spectrum of wireless signal processing.
