2026 2nd International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications (CWOC 2026) will be held from March 20th to 22nd, 2026 in Chengdu, China. CWOC 2026 proceedings will be published by SPIE, which will be archived in the SPIE Digital Library, and indexed by Ei Compendex, Scopus, and Web of Science (CPCI-S). <被录用的文章将收录在CWOC 2026会议论文集里, 并提交EI核心, Scopus, CPCI-S等数据库检索>.

Wireless and optical communications technologies are often found on the same cellular communications tower, supporting modern communications using different wavelengths. Communications have relied on signals propagating through the air from the earliest drumbeats. Wireless communications technologies make effective use of that signal transport medium even as the appetite for more and faster voice, video, and data grows. Still, light has been another long-time form of communications, literally “as far as the eye could see,” and optical communications has advanced at a pace equal to or exceeding the evolution of wireless communications. The technologies are much different, but each has its place, its strengths, and its weaknesses. Wireless communications relies on the transmission and reception of RF/microwave signals modulated with the information to be carried while optical communications uses modulated light beamed through fiber-optic cables.
The main objective is to create an effective platform for researchers, and technical experts to share recent ideas, innovations, and problem-solving techniques in the vast areas of Wireless and Optical Communications. Another goal is to promote the transformation of fundamental research into institutional and industrialized research and to convert applied exploration into real time application. It will be an excellent opportunity for both researchers and industrial communities to meet, discuss, and share their research outcomes. Prospective authors are invited to submit their original technical papers for presentation at the conference and publications in the conference proceedings.

*Authors are invited to submit original full papers prepared in the prescribed format of at least 4 pages. Authors can include up to 8 additional pages at a cost of $55 per page. Electronic submission in PDF format is required.
*The papers should be written in English and clearly state the title, objective, method, results, and conclusion with major keywords.
*After receiving, the full paper submissions will go through a blind review process to check for originality, scientific quality, fitness/significance, novelty, completeness, consistency, and presentation.
*The papers should be original work of the author(s), and no portion of the paper (including, but not limited to, graphics and figures) has been previously published. The paper is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere.
Further information about paper submission can be found on CALL FOR PAPERS webpage.
*The submitted full papers will go through a thorough double blind peer review process. Initial submissions with a high similarity index will be rejected without review. For papers that are accepted for review, Program Committee (PC) members will be matched to submissions based on research expertise and interest. The papers will be evaluated by at least TWO independent qualified reviewers and the whole review process will take around ONE month.
*Authors will be provided with a brief time window to address the initial review comments. The revised manuscripts submitted by the authors will then be taken into account in the final recommendations, and reviews may be changed accordingly. The final decisions on whether to accept or reject a paper for publication and presentation will be made by the Program Chairs.
*In double-anonymous mode, neither the authors nor the reviewers are aware of each other’s identity. This way of review model ensures that the reviewers can give an honest and impartial evaluation of the papers.
