In today's connected world, the electromagnetic environment is crucial for many sectors, such as mobility (moving people, goods and services), a connected society and healthcare. In defence, spectrum dependent systems are ubiquitous across land, maritime, air and space, being used for communications, sensing, weapons systems and more. As demand grows so reliable access to the electromagnetic spectrum becomes more challenging. Furthermore, in the Defence context, adversaries will actively contest spectrum access, such as through electromagnetic warfare to deliberately deny or degrade access. Maintaining freedom of action and delivering effects in and through the electromagnetic environment is therefore an important and growing challenge. Academics, suppliers including small and medium-sized enterprises, and colleagues from MOD and other government departments are invited to join the OFEME symposium, to work alongside Dstl's scientists and shape future thinking. The event will cover: • Shared challenges for operating within the future electromagnetic environment, both inside and outside of defence • How research and development investment can be harnessed in future approaches Dstl and The EME Hub are planning to hold the symposium as an in-person event, but also live-stream the main talks for those who are unable to attend. It will feature a range of keynote speakers, technical presentations, poster sessions and interactive workshops. The event will take place in Nottingham at the East Midlands Conference Centre. At this year's event, presentations will consider advances and implications in topics including: • Timing precision for distributed systems • Electromagnetic spectrum access and planning • Mathematical innovation for decision making strategies • Human performance: decision making and trust • Free-space optical communications • Quantum RF Sensing To request an invitation to the event, please complete the online form OFEME 2023 - Expression of Interest by 6 October 2023.
