OBJECTIVE
ISAP2012 is intended to provide an international forum for the exchange of information on the progress of research and development in antennas, propagation, electromagnetic wave theory, and related fields as shown in the SCOPE. It is also an important objective of this meeting to promote mutualinteraction among participants.

PREPARATION OF PAPERS
Original papers are solicited that have not been presented previously and that describe new contributions in the area suggested in the SCOPE. Each author is requested to prepare a 4-page camera-ready paper written in English, including all text, references, figures and photographs. The authors are requested to refer to the ISAP2012 Web page (http://www.isap12.org/) for the detailed paper preparation instructions and the IEICE Copyright Transfer Form. The Proceedings will be available in CD-ROM format.
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
Authors are requested to send their papers in IEEE Xplore-compliant PDF format by electronic method. The detailed instructions of the electronic Web-based paper submission will be provided on the ISAP2012 Web page. The deadline for the electronic paper submission is April 27, 2012. Presented papers of ISAP2012 will be included in IEEE Xplore.
