The main objective of PIMRC 2007 is to showcase the scientific excellence and technological achievements in present and future wireless communications by gathering the leading scientists, researchers, managers and key market players of all respective areas.77777

The main theme of the conference is in particular Wireless entropy and a key focal area will be to develop a vision about its steady state balance. In order to present the technologies contributing to this entropy, while at the same time exploring their future balance and evolution, authors are invited to submit high-quality papers describing original and previously unpublished contributions in a wide range of topics in wireless communications. These topics are clustered into three categories and include (but are not limited to) the following:
