By 2026, the global market size of the microwave and radio frequency industry (including RF front-end, microwave millimeter wave components, and antennas) will steadily cross the billions of dollars mark, maintaining a steady compound annual growth rate (CAGR). China is the world's largest producer and consumer of microwave equipment, with a domestic market size of 18.62 billion US dollars by 2025, accounting for 31.8% of the global total; It is expected to climb to 20.95 billion US dollars by 2026, with an annual growth rate of over 12.5%! The core advantages of Chengdu's microwave and radio frequency industry lie in its "large campus" technology foundation, complete industrial chain, military civilian integration characteristics, and national level policy empowerment.
The "2026 Western China Microwave and RF Technology Academic Salon" continues to be jointly planned by "Electronic Technology Application" and the China Electronics Show Organizing Committee, inviting advanced semiconductor manufacturers, testing and measurement manufacturers, and senior technical experts from home and abroad to help designers gain a deeper understanding of the technologies and techniques used in microwave/RF design and testing, and effectively solve the special design problems encountered by engineers!
Meeting time:July 16, 2026 (Thursday) 13:00-16:00 PM
Venue:Meeting Room M1, Hall 2, Chengdu Century City New International Convention and Exhibition Center
This seminar is led by Professor Zhang Yaxin, Vice Dean and Doctoral Supervisor of the Institute of Science and Technology Development at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, and Professor Tian Wenhong, Director and Doctoral Supervisor of the Advanced Computing Laboratory. Two testing experts, Siyi Technology and Enai Instrument, will give four themed application speeches. The technology salon focuses on cutting-edge technologies and hot topics in the field of microwave and radio frequency. Welcome to the conference to unlock!
Meeting Agenda
"5G deepens application, 6G technology reserves, and satellite Internet starts"! In 2026, the microwave RF industry will enter a new round of technology cycle. Terahertz communication, low earth orbit satellites, 4D radar, and synaesthesia integration will become the core growth pole, and domestic substitution and innovative applications will be equally important! In 2026, the global microwave and radio frequency industry will present the characteristics of "multi-point flowering of demand, accelerated technological iteration, and deep restructuring of the pattern":
In the short term, the construction of 5G-A base stations, the mass deployment of low orbit satellite constellations, and the deployment of onboard millimeter wave radars are the three major sources of deterministic growth. In the medium term, the pre research of 6G, satellite direct connection to mobile phones, and the popularization of 4D millimeter wave radar will open up new market space. In the long run, wide bandgap semiconductor materials such as GaN, advanced packaging processes, and domestically controlled supply chains are the core high points of industrial competition.
At present, the microwave and radio frequency industry in Chengdu is in a critical period of transitioning from the "billion level" to the "billion level". Wuhou District and High tech Zone play the roles of "characteristic leading zone" and "scale growth pole" respectively. Emerging applications such as satellite communication, low altitude economy, and automotive radar have opened up new growth space for the industry. With the continuous development of the "China Microwave Capital" brand, Chengdu is expected to become a benchmark city for technological innovation and industrial application in the national microwave and RF industry.
Group of 5-10 people: The leader will receive exquisite gifts, personalized visit codes, and business lunch vouchers.
11-24 person group: In addition to the above, an electronic conference catalogue will be given as a gift.
Groups of 25 or more: In addition to all the benefits mentioned above, free luxury buses will be provided for pick-up and drop off, and professional photography will be arranged for souvenirs.
