The editor reflects on the special issue of the periodical which is based on the 2012 International Microwave Symposium held on June 17-22, 2012 in Montreal, Quebec. He mentions that due to increased number of submissions to the special issue, it has been divided into two issues the first one was published in December 2012, and the next one in January 2013. He adds that the aim behind including conference papers in the issue is to present results that might help improve engineering designs.

This Transactions’ Mini-Special Issue includes four papers from the 2018 IEEE Radio and Wireless Week (RWW 2018) held in Anaheim (Garden Grove), CA, USA, January 14–17, 2018. RWW consists of five conferences focusing on the wireless communication theory, systems, circuits, and device technologies. They include the Radio and Wireless Symposium, Topical Conference on Power Amplifiers for Wireless and Radio Applications, Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems, Topical Conference on Wireless Sensors and Sensor Networks, and Topical Workshop on The Internet of Space. The program included parallel track technical sessions, three workshops, an Internet of Things (IoT) summit, a plenary session on IoT within 4G/5G networks, a panel session on the role of the device in power amplifier design, a joint RWW student paper contest, and a demo track session.

The IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (IEEE MTT-S) International Microwave Symposium (IMS) was held in Montreal, QC, Canada, on June 17?22, 2012, and the conference Chair introduced several exciting ideas to stimulate paper submissions to the conference. First, the conference committee made a determined effort to increase publicity, especially in Asia. Second, and definitely more controversial, they reduced the paper length from the traditional four pages to three pages. The thought behind this was that it would make it easier for authors to write a journal paper based on the conference paper because the conference paper would not contain as much technical information. Thus, the authors would have an easier time meeting the IEEE MTT-S threshold that every paper, whether conference or journal, must present substantially new technical material. There were a record number of submissions to the IEEE MTT-S IMS, and there were a record number of submissions to this TRANSACTIONS' "Special Issue on the 2012 International Microwave Symposium." In fact, there were too many submissions for the reviewers, the Associate Editors, and me to complete all of the papers before the deadline for the December issue. Therefore, I have divided the IEEE MTT-S IMS "Special Issue on the 2012 International Microwave Symposium" into two parts, which will be published in this TRANSACTIONS' December 2012 and January 2013 issues. In the January 2013 Special Issue, the Editor-in-Chief will write a full editorial detailing the number of papers, the acceptance rate, and my opinion on the success or failure of the three-page experiment. In the meantime, please enjoy this Special Issue with 32 papers based on papers presented at the 2012 IEEE MTT-S IMS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The IEEE Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems (SiRF) is a conference dedicated to the field of Si-based RF research, which encompasses the material, technology, devices, and more increasingly, circuits and systems, all based on Si for RF applications. Since its first meeting in 1998, it has continuously contributed to the popular adaption of Si technology to RF and millimeter-wave applications. After alternating between the US and Europe for the conference venues for the first five meetings, which were held every 1.5 years, SiRF has been annually held in the US since 2006 as part of IEEE Radio and Wireless Week. The 12th SiRF was held in Santa Clara, CA, January 16?18, 2012. One new attempt made for this year's conference was to encourage the authors of the presented papers to submit an expanded version to this TRANSACTIONS, which would be specially arranged for publication in a single issue if accepted. This was successfully implemented in this issue. Out of 56 papers presented at the conference, including both podium and poster papers, 12 papers were expanded and submitted. After the regular review process, five papers were finally accepted, a brief introduction of which is provided here. The Editor-in-Chief believes these selected papers will provide a more detailed description of the excellent results that were not available with the limited space allowed for the papers in the conference proceeding.

The author discusses the special issue of the periodical "IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques" which focuses on papers presented in the 2009 Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits (RFIC) Symposium held in Boston, Massachusetts in June. She reports that the acceptance rate for the papers submitted was high due to the good quality of the revised manuscripts. She explains how the reviewers for the special issue were selected.

The article focuses on the topics of the issue dedicated to the microwave theory and techniques from the papers presented at the 35th European Microwave Conference in Paris, France. The event received a submission of 711 papers from 49 countries, in which 452 papers were accepted for presentation at the conference. The authors state that the technical contents of the papers published in the issue may help those who are concerned about microwave theory and techniques.

This article focuses on the 2004 IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (IEEE MTT-S) International Microwave Symposium (IMS), which was held during 6-11 June 2004, in Fort Worth, Texas. 970 papers were originally submitted to the IEEE MTT-S IMS Technical Program Committee in December 2003 for possible presentation at the symposium in June 2004. Of those papers, 488 were accepted at the IEEE MTT-S IMS. Each of authors was then invited to expand their papers. 126 expanded papers were submitted and of these 65 papers have been accepted for publication. Of these, 22 were published in the November 2004 issue of the journal "IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques."

The article introduces the November 2004 issue of "IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques." This special issue contains papers that are expanded works on presentations at the 2004 IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society International Microwave Symposium. According to the author traditionally, the special issue contains the expanded paper from the IEEE Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits Symposium. This issue contains twenty two papers from the conference and rest of the papers will be issued in later issues.

Editorial. Comments on key developments in the microwave equipment industry discussed during the 2000 Asia-Pacific Microwave Conference in December 2000. Theme of the conference; Range of microwave devices covered by academic papers presented during the conference; List of academic paper reviewers.

This article presents information on the 15th International Conference on Microwaves, Radar, and Wireless Communications (MIKON'04) which was held from 17-19 May, 2004, in Warsaw, Poland, where 234 papers from 32 countries were presented. It is worth pointing out that the success of last year's conference should be perceived in the light of MIKON's 35-year-long history. It began in 1969 as a microwave solid-state technology conference and, in 1983, it was transformed into and renamed as a microwave conference. Over the years, MIKON has been continuously modified and expanded.
