THE CONFERENCE

EuCAP is the largest and most relevant antennas and propagation conference in Europe. It attracts more than 1500 participants from academia and industry, and more than 50 industrial exhibitors, from all over the world. It is a great forum for exchanging new technical-scientific achievements, demonstrating state-of-the-art technology, and establishing and strengthening professional networks. The 2024 Edition of EuCAP will be held in Glasgow, UK, between 17-22 March 2024. Leveraging from strong academic and industrial base at the host country in antennas and propagation, EuCAP 2024 will showcase the latest technological and scientific discoveries in this field making links with local strengths on radar and non-terrestrial network technologies.
