ARFTG-107 Activity Agenda Released

The full ARFTG-107 Activity Agenda is now available.
Plan your week. Identify the sessions that matter. Make the most of your time at IMS-2026 and ARFTG-107.
A Full Week of Microwave Measurement in Action
ARFTG-107 is not just a conference day. It is a full week where measurement science is discussed, challenged, and advanced. From workshops to standards meetings, from user forums to the technical program, this is where the microwave measurement community comes together.
The week opens with joint IMS/ARFTG workshops:
- Sunday: WSI (full day) “On-wafer Sub-THz Measurements from Fundamentals to Next-Generation Tools and Applications”
- Monday: WMK (morning) “Unlocking the Power of Phase Information in RF Measurements”
- Monday: WMM (afternoon) “Bridging from Conductive to Over-the-Air Characterization Using Reverberation Techniques”
- Thursday: WThA (full day) “Microwave Measurements Supporting Quantum Technologies”
These sessions go beyond theory. They focus on practical challenges, real measurement setups, and emerging techniques.
Midweek: Where Standards and Practice Meet
Before the main conference, the community aligns on what matters next:
- IEEE P2822 and IEEE 1785 meetings
- NVNA Users Forum
- On-wafer Users Forum
This is where measurement methods are debated, refined, and standardized.
Friday, June 12: The ARFTG-107 Technical Program
One day. Four focused sessions. Full coverage of modern microwave metrology:
- Session A: Metrology and Traceability of Electrical Quantities
Uncertainty analysis, waveguide validation, and reproducibility up to 220 GHz - Session B: Intelligent Automation for Microwave Measurements
Autonomous probing, nanorobotics, and machine learning in calibration workflows - Session C: Over-the-Air and Non-Linear Measurements
Wideband characterization, NVNA accuracy, and OTA uncertainty reduction - Session D: On-Wafer Measurements and Calibration
Advanced calibration methods, inter-lab benchmarking, and model-based diagnostics
Also part of the program:
- Keynote from NIST
- Interactive Forum with emerging work
- Exhibits and direct exchange with industry
- ARFTG-107 Awards Luncheon
Why ARFTG-107
This is not just a conference. It is built for engineers working at the limits of frequency, accuracy, and repeatability. You come for measurement techniques. You leave with better methods.
Join Us at ARFTG-107
Be part of the discussions shaping the future of microwave measurements. Engage with experts. Challenge assumptions. Advance your measurement capabilities. We look forward to welcoming you in Boston.
