The third International Conference on Wireless Communication in Underground and
Confined Areas will be held in Val-d’Or, Canada, August 23-25 2010. ICWCUCA is a
forum for academic researchers, professionals and industrial specialists that are
interested in or have realized original research, innovative applications, or field trials related to telecommunications in a confined area (basement, vehicle) or an underground environment (e.g. underground city, tunnels, subway, mine, shelter).

This third Conference should focus on Antennas & Propagation Channel Modeling, Smart
Antennas, Prediction Tools and admissible topics include but are not limited to the
following:

Access & Transmission: Channel Allocation, Medium Access Control, Modulation,
Coding, MIMO Systems
Networks: Ad-Hoc Networks, Wireless Local Area Networks, Mesh Networks,
Sensor Networks
Network Planning and Deployment:: Architecture, Protocols, Handover, Roaming,
