Letter from MRW 2026 General Chair
Dear colleagues,
I am very pleased to inform you that the International Microwave and Radar Conference (MIKON 2026) and International Radar Symposium (IRS 2026) will take place in Kraków, Poland between May 18-21, 2026 during the 12th Microwave and Radar Week 2026.
The conference will provide an excellent international forum for the dissemination of original research results, new ideas and the direct exchange of professional experiences. The event is aimed for academics, researchers, engineers as well as industry professionals.
The Submission of Papers will open on November 15th, 2025.
You are invited to submit papers in PDF format in either of the following three categories:
- Full paper of 3 – 6 A4 pages long
- Extended abstract of 2 full pages long is allowed for authors who declare to extend their conference paper and submit it for Special Issue
- One-page abstracts, which will be prepared on the basis of articles already published by the authors in journals
Authors of the papers of category A or B, submitted to MRW 2026 conferences, are invited to write an extended postconference paper to be published in Special Issues of selected journals, including IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques (aiming for post-MIKON papers) and (tentatively) MDPI Remote Sensing (aiming for post-IRS papers).
In order to submit a paper please create an account or login first via MRW 2026 conference system EDAS and then submit your paper as PDF file for MIKON 2026 or IRS 2026 no later than 26th of January 2026.
Please feel free to circulate this message among your friends.
I would like to send my greetings and I look forward to seeing you in Kraków, Poland.
Kind regards,

Józef Modelski
