Welcome to the 4th International
Waveform Diversity and Design Conference!

Please join us for the 2009 International Waveform Diversity & Design Conference in Orlando, Florida, USA. This fourth conference in the on-going series will continue to build on the success of the previous three conferences by bringing together researchers from numerous diverse backgrounds and specialties to facilitate the exchange and cross-fertilization of ideas and research. Recent advances in hardware technology are enabling a much wider range of design freedoms to be explored for sensor and communication systems. As a result, there are emerging and compelling changes in system requirements such as more efficient spectrum usage, higher sensitivities, transmitter/receiver agility, greater information content, improved robustness to errors, etc. The combination of these is fueling a worldwide interest in the subject of waveform design and the use of waveform diversity techniques.

Abstracts of 1,000-1,500 words are solicited which should include examples of data and illustrations.

The WDD organizing committee invites original contributions to Waveform Diversity and Design in the general areas of Communications, Radar, Sonar, etc. Specifically, topics to be included are:

Radar Systems Multi-function Operation Modulation Schemes
Sonar Systems Impulsive Systems Multiple-access Schemes
3G/4G Communication Systems Tomography Multi-user Operation
Laser Systems Ultra-wideband Operation Bandwidth-on-Demand
Interference Suppression Target Detection Synchronization
RF Compatibility Tracking RF Imaging
Space-Time Adaptive Processing Interferometry Hardware Efficiency
Channel Estimation/Equalization SAR/ISAR Bi-static/multi-static Operation
Software Agile Radio/Radar MIMO Communications Sensor Fusion
Passive Sensing Operation RF Hitchhiking Polarimetry
Target-adaptive Matched Filtering Error Correction Coding EM Phenomenology

Abstracts are due on or before 10 October 2008. Authors of accepted papers will be notified by
17 November 2008 and will receive instructions for publication at that time. Complete papers of
a maximum of five pages (including text and illustrations) will be required by 19 December 2008.
