The Wireless Congress 2004, set for November 10-11 in Munich, Germany, has issued a call for papers on topics such as long-haul WLANs, body area networks, high-speed multimedia data transmission, wireless sensor networks, and ubiquitous computing.

The complete list of suggested topics includes:

• Wireless data networks (WLAN, etc.)
• Mobile telephony and mobile services (in 2.5G, 3G, UMTS, possibly 4G)
• Personal networks (e.g. Bluetooth, body area networks, ZigBee)
