The 2008 IEEE International Conference on Ultra-Wideband, ICUWB 2008, will take place at the Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany, on September 10-12, 2008. This conference provides a forum for the latest UWB systems, technologies and applications in both microwave and millimeter wave bands.

A modern city, a state capital with groundbreaking architecture and a model infrastructure, surrounded by idyllic little towns and villages – this is Hannover with all its exciting and alluring contrasts. As a city of trade fairs and events, Hannover is easily and conveniently accessible via Hannover Airport, the A2 and A7 motorways or German Rail’s network of ICE high-speed trains. The whole region is connected together by a comprehensive system of public transport.
