Welcome to IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (AP-S)

As I write this message in the third week of June, we are almost half a year into 2026. We are now preparing for the second Administrative Committee (AdCom) meeting of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (AP-S) to be held in Detroit, MI, USA, during 11–12 July 2026 before the annual flagship conference, the 2026 IEEE International Symposium on Antennas & Propagation and USNC-URSI Radio Science Meeting. By the time that you read this, the conference would have been behind us as a great memory of knowledge sharing, networking, and meeting old and new friends. General Chairs Prem Chahal and Amir Mortazawi and the Organizing Committee worked hard to make the conference a success.

I am excited about the progress we have been making in streamlining the Society’s operations as well as expanding AP-S outreach to “sister” Societies in IEEE and non-IEEE societies and associations. IEEE has 39 technical Societies, each dedicated to advancing technology in its respective field. Our Society is dedicated to advancing electromagnetics frontiers. We collaborate and work closely with other Societies that share similar technical interests.
