The first European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP 2006) is organised by the European Network of Excellence ACE, under the EU 6th Framework Programme (FP6) and is co-sponsored by the European Space Agency (ESA). As a further step in the ACE efforts to structure and coordinate antenna research in Europe, EuCAP will provide a forum for the European R&D communities in the Antennas & Propagation area, both at academic and industrial levels.

EuCAP is supported by the top level Associations in Antennas & Propagation, and, in the spirit of AP2000, it regroups the former JINA and ICAP conferences, two ESA Workshops on Satellite Antennas and Propagation and the final Workshop of the EC COST Action 284 on Antennas.

EuCAP will provide the ideal place for the exchange of scientific and technical information and to foster collaboration and cooperation in the Antenna & Propagation domain both at European and global levels. With this aim, EuCAP will continue beyond 2006 as a regular keystone event on Antennas and Propagation, with a large participation of the world community which is kindly invited to join.

Format of the conference
The conference will combine the following formats:
• Plenary sessions with invited keynote papers
• Oral sessions and workshops
• Poster sessions
