The International Workshop on Antenna Technology (iWAT) is an annual forum for the exchange of information on the progress of research and development in innovative antenna technology. It especially focuses on small antennas and applications of advanced and artificial materials to the antenna design. iWAT2010 is the continuation of a series of annual international antenna workshops held in Singapore (2005), White Plaines, USA (2006), Cambridge, UK (2007), Chiba, Japan (2008), and Santa Monica, USA (2009)

The workshop is organized by Instituto de Telecomunicações, Instituto Superior Técnico ?Technical University of Lisbon, co-sponsored by IEEE Portugal Section, and technically co-sponsored by IEEE AP-S, IET and the University of Liverpool.

The topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:

Small Antennas and Arrays
