THE 27TH EUROPEAN MICROWAVE WEEK

The 2024 European Microwave Week (EuMW 2024) continues the series of successful microwave events that
started back in 1998. EuMW 2024 consists of three conferences:
• The European Microwave Conference (EuMC)
• The European Microwave Integrated Circuits Conference (EuMIC)
• The European Radar Conference (EuRAD)
In addition, EuMW 2024 includes the Forum on Defence, Security and Space, the Automotive Forum, 6G Forum,
an extensive trade show as well as student activities. EuMW 2024 provides the opportunity to participate in
conferences, workshops, short courses, and special events such as Women in Microwave Engineering.
The annual European Microwave Exhibition, which is by far the largest RF and microwave trade show in Europe,
is held in conjunction with the 3 conferences. The exhibition also includes a series of technical seminars and
exhibitor workshops describing commercial products and processes.
The 2024 European Microwave Week will take place in Paris Convention Centre, 1 place de la Porte de Versailles

2024
The 21st European Radar Conference

CONFERENCE HIGHLIGHTS
The conference is the ideal event to keep up to date with the latest achievements in the field of radar and to interact with
international experts from industry and academia. The conference brings together researchers and radar designers and developers
from all over the world to stimulate development of new trends, products, and services. International experts will present keynote
papers on topics of current importance and on the latest advances. Tailored short-courses and workshops will complement the
programme.

EUMA RADAR PRIZE

The EuMA Radar Prize is awarded by the EuRAD Technical Programme Committee and the EuMW Steering Committee to the best
paper at the 21st European Radar Conference. The value of the EuMA Radar Prize is €3,000. An extended version of the winning
paper will be considered for publication in the International Journal of Microwave and Wireless Technologies.

EuRAD YOUNG ENGINEER PRIZE

The EuRAD Technical Programme Committee and the EuMW Steering Committee will award a EuRAD Young Engineer Prize of
€2,000 to young engineers or researchers who have presented an outstanding contribution at the European Radar Conference.
To be eligible, candidates must (1) be under 30 years of age at date of award, (2) be the first author of the paper, and (3) be the
contribution presenter in an oral or a poster session. The first author must have made a major contribution to the work reported
which must be described in an electronic statement signed by all authors of the paper (effectively co-authors state that their
contribution was merely advisory). Further rules are similar to EuMC and EuMIC.

REDUCED FEES AND SPECIAL GRANTS

Reduced registration fees are offered for students as well as senior persons aged 65 years or more and for military personnel
(with proof of affiliation). The European Microwave Association will also provide up to five student grants of €750 and free EuRAD
registration. Applicants for a student grant must be aged 30 or younger at the time of the European Microwave Week, be a full-
time student, i.e., an undergraduate or a PhD student, and they will be asked to provide a supervisor’s written confirmation of
their current student status. The European Microwave Association will also provide a number of grants for delegates coming from
the Newly Independent States and from low-income countries. We are particularly proud to support applications from Ukrainian
scholars. The value of the grant is €750 in addition to a free EuRAD registration. Applications should be sent to the EuMW 2024
Grants Chair by emailing [email protected] within the deadline (see “Important Dates” section).
