Conference Information:

The 2022 IEEE Middle East & North Africa COMMunications Conference (MENACOMM 2022) will be held on 6-8 December 2022 in Amman the capital of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The IEEE MENACOMM 2022 conference is technically co-sponsored by IEEE ComSoc chapters consortium (Jordan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and Tunisia) in addition to four newly joined ComSoc chapters (Oman, Iraq, Morocco and Egypt). The conference is organized and sponsored by Al-Zaytoonah University of Jordan (ZUJ), IEEE Joint Communications and Signal Processing Society Jordan ChapterIEEE MENACOMM 2022 aims to bring together researchers, developers and practitioners interested in the advances of modern telecommunication systems, networks, and emerging ICT technologies, to present their latest research findings and results. The conference focuses on various aspects of 5G, Beyond 5G and 6G communications and networks. Moreover, an especial emphasis is given to topics related to machine learning in communication. The conference will include a peer-reviewed program of technical sessions, special sessions, and exhibitions.
The accepted and presented papers will be submitted to the IEEE Xplore® digital library and indexed in Scopus. Please submit your paper via EDAS on the link (https://edas.info/N29985).
