CALL FOR PAPERS                                                     

 

The 2009 International IEEE Conference on RFID addresses key topics and issues related to RF-based identification and

communication systems, and will feature keynotes, presentations on technology advances and panel discussions on pressing

topics.  IEEE RFID 2009 is the third annual conference that brings together researchers and practitioners from both academia

and industry to share research results and knowledge in the areas of RFID technologies, their supporting large-scale distributed

information systems and their applications.

 

Once again co-located with the RFID Journal LIVE! 2009 tradeshow and conference, attendees and presenters alike benefit.

 

Authors are invited to submit full 8-page papers in the IEEE conference format presenting new research related to the theory

and practice of RF-based identification and communication systems. All submissions must describe original work not previously

published or currently under review for publication in another conference or journal.

 

Topic areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

 

  * Antennas & Propagation: Antenna theory and designs, channel measurements and modeling

  * Circuits, Devices & Sensors: Low-power circuit designs, integrated sensors, energy harvesting,
     non-silicon-based structures

  * Communication Protocols: Coding, modulation and medium access schemes

  * Security & Privacy: Cryptographic protocols and privacy-enhancing techniques

  * System Tools: Tools for the design, deployment and evaluation of RFID systems

  * RF-based Localization: Novel system approaches, technologies and algorithms

  * RFID System Architecture: "RFID middleware", large-scale discovery services

  * Policy & Regulatory Issues: Spectral management, privacy issues, co-existence of RFID systems,
     social implications of RFID technology

  * Deployment Issues & Concerns: Reliability, EMC compatibility, tag recycling, issues in patient safety

  * Applications: Reports on the introduction and operational experience of RFID applications

 

Important Dates:

Abstract submissions due:                     December 1, 2008

Paper submissions due:                         December 5, 2008

Notification of acceptance:                      February 13, 2009

Publication-ready version due:                 March 13, 2009

 

Submission instructions: Go to www.ieee-rfid.org/2009.  Accepted and presented papers will be published in the IEEE conference

proceedings and in IEEE Xplore®.   

 

To be published in the IEEE RFID 2009 Conference Proceedings and IEEE Xplore®, an author of an accepted paper is required

to register for the conference at the FULL (member or non-member) rate, and is expected to present the paper at the conference.

Registration fees must be paid prior to uploading the final IEEE formatted, publication-ready version of the paper. For authors with

multiple accepted papers, one FULL registration is valid for a single paper only.

CALL FOR SPECIAL SESSION PROPOSALS

The IEEE RFID 2009 Committee invites proposals for the special sessions of the 3rd International IEEE Conference on RFID.  Special
sessions provide a forum for attendees to discuss topics of special interest. The 1 ½ hour long sessions will be held during the main
conference and can be thought of as mini-workshops.

Important Dates

Submission Deadlines                            December 1st
Acceptance Notification                          January 1st
Final Invited Session Program Due          March 13th

Proposal Content

We are soliciting special session proposals in areas related to RFID. Session organizers are expected to be active in the area of their
workshop proposal. Workshop proposals should be no longer than 1 page in IEEE conference format.

Workshop proposals should include

  • Name of special session
  • Summary describing the theme(s) of the special  session (not more than 150 words)
  • A description of the session format, activities and goals (e.g., oral presentations, discussion panels, invited talks)
  • Who do the organizers expect will attend the invited session?
  • How do the organizers plan to attract submissions/participants?
  • What is the expected outcome of the invited session?
  • What is the expected agenda for the invited session?

Organizer's responsibilities

  • Organize contributions to the special session, e.g. by inviting positioning papers, by inviting speakers, by organizing panels.
  • Actively run the special session during the IEEE RFID 2009 conference

IEEE RFID 2009 support

  • Announce accepted special sessions
  • Publish agenda/speakers in special sessions in program
  • Provide rooms for the special sessions

Please submit your proposals to:  TPChair@ieee-rfid.org.
