Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The 21st SBMO/IEEE MTT-S International Microwave and Optoelectronics Conference (IMOC 2025) will be held from November 9 to 12, 2025, in Campina Grande, Brazil. Organized biennially by the Brazilian Microwave and Optoelectronics Society (SBMO) in partnership with the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S), IMOC is a well-established international forum that brings together researchers, engineers, and industry professionals in the fields of microwave engineering, optoelectronics, antennas, photonics, and wireless communications.
This 21st edition of IMOC will feature keynote lectures, technical sessions, special sessions, and tutorials addressing recent advances in RF devices, metamaterials, biomedical applications, 5G/6G systems, terahertz technologies, and optical communication systems. This conference promotes collaboration between academia and industry and provides an excellent platform for networking and knowledge dissemination.
A Special Issue related to IMOC 2025 will be published in Micromachines (MDPI), aiming to provide high-quality extended versions of selected papers presented during the conference.
