CALL FOR PAPERSConference Venue: BangaloreImportant DatesLast Date of Paper Submission: Feb 28, 2025Notification of Acceptance: April 15, 2025Last Date of Author Registration: May 15, 2025More detail at https://www.ieeespace.org/index.php SPACE is a premier interdisciplinary forum for space, aerospace, and defence experts, engineers, and researchers to come together to discuss the latest developments in designated technologies. The conference provides a platform for sharing cutting-edge research, exploring innovative approaches, and addressing the technical challenges facing the space, aerospace and defence industries. It is a well known fact that technologies used in Space, Aerospace and Defence can be used among these 3 domains with some improvement/modifications. The objective of SPACE is to create a platform where industry professionals and research scientists working across these.domains share, learn and collaborate. Scientists, Researchers and industry practitioners are encouraged to present their work and developments can be used across/at least in two of these domains. The conference covers all aspects of Space, Aerospace and Defence technologies (within IEEE's field of interest). The conference program includes keynote presentations, technical sessions, workshops, and panel discussions, all aimed at fostering collaboration and driving innovation in aerospace and defense. The SPACE Conference is a hub for fostering partnerships between industry, academia, and government agencies. It offers valuable opportunities for networking, mentorship, and professional development, enabling attendees to establish new connections and gain insights into the latest trends and best practices in aerospace and defense. With its focus on IEEE Tagline "Advancing Technology for Humanity" and pushing the boundaries of SPACE, aerospace and defence capabilities, SPACE plays a crucial role in shaping the future of these industries. By bringing together thought leaders and experts, the conference serves as a catalyst for driving progress and innovation in the space, aerospace and defence sectors, ultimately contributing to advancing Indian & Global capabilities in these domains. Attendees can look forward to engaging with leading experts, gaining exposure to groundbreaking research, and participating in discussions that are at the forefront of shaping the future of aerospace and defense. Whether you are an industry professional, academic researcher, or government representative, the SPACE Conference offers a unique platform to exchange ideas, foster collaborations, and contribute to advancing aerospace and defense technologies.TracksAerospace Systems TechnologiesDefence Systems TechnologiesSpace Systems TechnologiesTopicsYou are further requested to choose topics relevant to your paper work among the following:Antenna/RF/MicrowavesCommunication/NetworkingComputing/Cyber Security/IT/Software EngineeringMission Planning/Controls/Navigation/GuidanceEmbedded Systems/VLSI/RFIC/MMIC/NanoelectronicsEMI/EMC/ESD/HPM/Space Weathermm-wave/THz/5G/6GPower/Energy/Power ElectronicsSignal Processing/Data ProcessingAssembly, Integration, & Testing/CheckoutGyros/Sensors & Associated ElectronicsGround Support TechnologiesMiniaturization TechnologiesTechnologies for HumanitySustainable TechnologiesSystem EngineeringReliability/Quality AssurancePhotonics/Electro-opticsOptical/Microwave Remote Sensing TechnologiesNot Listed Above
