Call For Papers

Join us in Dresden for 9th Workshop on Positioning, Navigation and Communication 2012 (WPNC’12). Localization is touching every aspect of our everyday life. Advanced location aware services are enabled by ranging and positioning techniques attracting great attention from scientists and industry alike. Recent advances in heterogeneous sensor fusion, p2p-networks, context awareness, privacy and security are enabling new system solutions and bring in new challenges to be solved at the same time. WPNC, the premier event on Positioning and Navigation in Europe, continues to provide an international platform for exchanging latest research results and inputs from the industry. Be part of the positioning revolution and submit your original contribution to WPNC 2012. Papers will appear in IEEEXplore (pending) and will be eligible for a WPNC best paper award.


Submission deadline: November 25 2011
Acceptance notification: January 21 2012
Conference dates: March 15 - 16 2012
