| About
the Event In recent years,
service providers and public utilities have begun to deploy fixed
wireless multipoint communication systems in order to provide network
access and SCADA services at a reasonable cost. Through the efforts of
industry, government and academia, Canada has made significant
contributions to this field.
During this afternoon event, presenters from UBC, BC Hydro, Planetworks, PMC Sierra and Tranzeo Wireless reviewed recent progress with particular focus on fixed wireless propagation studies, systems engineering, and product development. The meeting time (Friday afternoon) and place (close to Edmonds station on the SkyTrain Expo line) were chosen to be particularly convenient for both industrial and academic attendees. |
Registration: Thanks to
generous sponsorship by Western Economic Diversification Canada,
registration for
this event is free of charge.
Please register by sending your name, company affiliation, and contact information to Prof. Dave Michelson, UBC at davem@ece.ubc.ca. Because the event is being held in an industry facility, all attendees must register in advance, and no later than the close of business on Wed, 1 Apr 2009. Space is limited, so registrations will be accepted on a first-come, first serve basis. |
