-------------------------------------------------------

The seventh International Conference on
Communications, Signal Processing, and their
Applications (ICCSPA’26) will provide a venue for
academics and practitioners in the area of
communications, networking, and signal processing
to present and discuss their latest scholarly
work.

The conference will be held in Alcalá de Henares
(Madrid), Spain, between 15-18 June 2026. Besides
contributed papers, the program will include
keynote presentations, panel discussions, talk by
industry professionals, tutorials, and student
poster sessions. Social events will provide the
opportunity for professional networking.

Prospective authors are invited to submit their
full papers using the EDAS
(https://edas.info/N34217) online submission
system. Like the previous events, accepted and
presented papers in ICCSPA’26 are expected to be
submitted for indexing in IEEE Xplore and Scopus.


CONFERENCE TRACKS

The conference welcomes submissions across four
distinct research tracks to foster focused
discussions among researchers with shared
interests. Each track encompasses a range of
interconnected topics and methodologies,
encouraging both theoretical contributions and
practical applications. While the topics listed
under each track highlight primary areas of
interest, they are not exhaustive—we encourage
submissions that explore emerging themes,
interdisciplinary approaches, and novel
perspectives that align with the broader scope of
each track. Authors are invited to select the
track that best fits their research contribution,
keeping in mind that cross-track dialogue and
collaboration are actively encouraged throughout
the conference.
