Sessions added on Massive MIMO, HetNets, Phased Arrays, mmWaves and Testing Challenges
EDI CON Adds 5G Advanced Communications Forum to Conference
January 7, 2015 (Norwood, Mass.) - Horizon House Publications and Microwave Journal China are pleased to announce that EDI CON 2015, taking
place April 14-16, has added a 5G Advanced Communications Forum to the conference schedule. The 5G Forum will be a full day of sessions taking
place on April 15 at the China National Convention Center (CNCC). The 5G Forum will kick off with China Mobile presenting their perspective
on 5G technologies followed by a panel session including experts from organizations such as China Mobile, Shanghai Tech, Keysight Technologies,
Rohde & Schwarz and National Instruments. A series of sessions will follow covering topics such as massive MIMO, HetNets, phased array transceivers,
timing and synchronization, testing challenges, new modulation schemes and mmWave technologies.
5G research and development is taking off, with the standards creation process getting started and implementation scheduled to begin in 2020.
5G is expected to take a revolutionary leap from today's 4G standards; so many companies and research organizations are heavily involved in
testing and prototyping systems to evaluate these new technologies. President of Horizon House, Ivar Bazzy, commented, "The addition of the
5G Forum to EDI CON China is a natural enhancement to the conference, as many of the microwave technologies and testing techniques covered in
our sessions will enable 5G systems in the future." EDI CON China is where RF/microwave and high speed digital industry experts exchange ideas
and learn about new technologies being offered by companies from around the world, with emphasis on practical engineering. To register for EDI

About EDI CON
EDI CON is an industry-driven conference/exhibition targeting RF, microwave, EMC/EMI, and high speed digital design engineers and system
integrators developing products for today's communication, computing, RFID, wireless, navigation, aerospace and related markets. The technical
program and exhibition include the leading international RFIC, component and material manufacturers, semiconductor foundries, EDA software and
test equipment/solution providers. This year's conference features the most recent trends in high-frequency electronics and wireless communication
technology, addressing all aspects of design, simulation and test verification through an understanding of system requirements for wireless
communication networks, such as small cell infrastructure, SATCOM and microwave backhaul.
About Horizon House
Horizon House is an experienced and well-established organizer of targeted events, including European Microwave Week (EuMW) on behalf of
the European Microwave Association (EuMA), and several major microwave related conferences/exhibitions such as the RF/Microwave, M2M and Microwave
Backhaul Zones at Super Mobility Week (CTIA).
Microwave Journal China, a Horizon House Publication and sister magazine of Microwave Journal, is promoting and publicizing EDI CON China
2015 to local engineers, technology companies and academia, while also providing input from, and a link to, the wider high speed, high frequency,
RF and microwave community.
