Discussing the impact of emerging technologies on millimetre, microwave, UHF and VHF spectral value, the first CW TEC (CW Technology & Engineering Conference) has been announced by Cambridge Wireless. The event, which is scheduled to take place on 4th March 2015, will consider the impact that mobile, satellite, TV, IOT and wearable technology will have on the value of licensed and unlicensed spectrum.

The CW TEC will question whether present technology platforms should become more similar or dissimilar over time. In four sessions, the conference will identify the physical layer technologies, hardware platforms and higher layer protocols that will impact future global spectral value. The conference will begin with the sessions titled 'Mobile broadband and GEO satellite technology evolution and the related impact on the 4G to 5G transition', and 'WiFi and low earth orbit satellites'. The 'Terrestrial broadcasting and mobile broadband' and 'Machine to machine/IOT and wearable connectivity' sessions will follow.

The event will open with a keynote from Jass Sarai, Technology Industry Leader at PwC UK, who are sponsoring and hosting the event at it's London Riverside offices.Other speakers include Andy Sutton, Principal Network Architect, EE; Sami Susiaho, Head of Edge Technologies, BskyB and Chris Nokes, Lead R&D Engineer BBC.

“This is a great opportunity to bring together technical experts from the mobile broadband, TV and satellite communities to discuss and debate technology challenges and opportunities across the radio spectrum from VHF to KA band and beyond,” said Geoff Varrall, RTT Online and CW SIG Champion.“The event will also focus on associated standards and regulatory issues, drawing on practical case study implementation experience in the UK, Europe and the US.”

"We are proud to both sponsor and host the first CW Wireless Technology & Engineering Conference,” said Jass Sarai, PwC. “We will be joined by some fantastic speakers and the conference is sure to provide delegates with a detailed oversight of the opportunities that exist within the exciting worlds of mobile broadband, entertainment and communications. PwC has long been a supporter of the great work that CW does whether locally, nationally or internationally. We look forward to 24 March 2015 and the outcomes of this inaugural event."
