The conference starts on October 12, 2026.

It takes place in the National Capital Region, USA.

The organizer names industry professionals, academics and government professionals worldwide as its intended audience.

It is most useful for defense communications engineers, researchers and program staff who want technical papers alongside contractors, since the program has five technical tracks, tutorials and workshops, plus a restricted-access technical program, and sponsors include Lockheed Martin, L3Harris, BAE Systems, RTX and MITRE. Test and measurement vendors such as Keysight and Rohde & Schwarz exhibit, so equipment suppliers have a fit, but people outside defense and government communications will find the theme on battlefield cyber resilience and quantum technologies narrow.

Attendees at defense and IEEE technical conferences in the Washington area usually wear business casual, with suits or blazers common for keynote speakers, government officials and exhibitors. Military and government attendees sometimes wear uniforms, and comfortable shoes suit the exhibition hall.
