After some initial reluctance I was happy to answer yes, and when EurAAP later sent me a formal proposal of chairing the conference, I was sure that I wanted to do it, and the excitement has only increased since then. Chalmers University of Technology and Gothenburg have a long tradition of antenna re- search, started in the early 1980s by my predecessor at Chalmers, Folke Bolinder, and Olof Dahlsjö at Ericsson Radar Electronics (ERE). Olof Dahlsjö was the head of the antenna department at ERE for more than 30 years. The antenna department at ERE grew later to what today is the antenna departments within the three companies Ericsson AB, Saab AB Electronic Defence Systems, and RUAG Space AB. 14 Swedish companies are today partners of the Chase Antenna Systems VINN Excellence center at Chalmers. The Chase center has a total turnover of 210 MSEK over 10 years (including financial support from the Swedish Governmental Agency for Innovation Systems VINNOVA, Chalmers and the 14 companies), and thus represents a very significant undertaking within antenna systems research in Sweden. This has already resulted in several start-ups and spin-offs from Chalmers research, such as e.g. Bluetest AB. The EuCAP 2013 appears after six years have passed of the lifetime of Chase, so it is a great opportunity for us to show the world what we have achieved during these years. Naturally, all the companies in Chase strongly support that Chalmers is hosting EuCAP 2013, and several of them are also exhibiting at the conference. If you are interested in the strong antenna history of Sweden, I can recommend you to attend the Thursday afternoon session/ workshop on “The History of Antennas in Sweden”. This covers many important Swedish antenna historical aspects including Grimeton radio station SAQ (a Unesco World Heritage, we also arrange a visit by bus trip there), Professor Hallén and his famous integral equation, the radio telescope at Onsala outside Gothenburg, the enormous VHF and UHF EISCAT antenna systems for ionospheric Eurora research in Cap of the North, Swedish phased array antennas used e.g. on the Swedish fighter aircrafts JAS Gripen and early warning radar ERIEYE, and Swedish space antenna projects, and the development of the experimental stealth ship “Smyge” (meaning creep in English). There will also be presentations about Allgon, one of the first mass producers of small antennas, and Comhat/Arkivator mass producing reflector antennas and filters for radio links, mainly Ericsson’s MINI-LINK, one of their most successful products ever. Bluetest AB will also present their success story related to Over-The-Air (OTA) test equipment for mobile devices. So, I think this session should be interesting for many of you. The session is actually part of a Swedish Antenna Veterans Day, that includes also a bus trip to the Grimeton Unesco World Heritage and the evening banquet with ABBA music show. Naturally, international telecom companies find Gothenburg interesting today. We have an organization called Microwave Road that promotes the Gothenburg area for its competence in microwaves and antenna technology, and it has enriched the area that Huawei Technologies Sweden AB settled here a few years ago with several interesting antenna projects, involving also financial support of research at Chalmers. Chalmers welcomes this, and sees a lot of potential for the future in develo- ping our competences further together with also a fast-growing and ambitious company like Huawei. 6 7th EUROPEAN CONFERENCE ON ANTENNAS AND PROPAGATION Gothenburg

  • F&L Way to Explore Gothenburg
    THE F&L WAY TO EXPLORE THE CITY YOU ARE HERE! FOR SUNNY DAYS TRÄDGÅRDSFÖRENINGEN The Garden Society of Gothenburg, Trädgårdsföreningen, is one of the best preserved 19th century parks in Europe. Here you can find thousands of roses, carpet beddings and lush woodlands. The palm house from 1878 houses exotic plants in a Mediterranean climate. For 170 years the Garden Society of Gothenburg has been an oasis of greenery in the heart of Gothenburg, a place to relax and be invigorated. Today it is one of the best-preserved nineteenth-century parks in Europe, where rolling lawns, historic buildings and ornamental gardens featuring exotic and indigenous plants take you back to the golden age of horticulture. The sweeping borders and nineteenth-century atmosphere set the tone. In 1992 the Garden Society of Gothenburg became the first park in Sweden to be given listed building status for its cultural heritage. “Palmhuset” at Trädgårdsföreninen GOTHENBURG BOTANICAL GARDEN Here you'll find around 16,000 species of plants in the different greenhouses and areas like the rock garden and herb garden. The Botanical Garden offers a vast and impressive collection of plants and flowers, and is a great place to visit all year round. With over half a million visitors a year it’s one of the most popular attractions in the region. The admission to the Botanical Gardens is free; the admission to the greenhouses is 20 SEK (Free for under-18s). Download the Botaniska app and go on a guided tour throughout the Botanical Garden.

  • This Is the West Swedish Agreement
    The West Swedish Agreement – initiatives for a sustainable West Sweden Who’s paying the bill? The West Swedish Agreement costs SEK 34 billion. 50 per cent of the financing comes from Region Västra Götaland, Region Halland and Gothenburg City along with income from congestion tax in Gothenburg. State funding finances the remaining 50 per cent. Congestion tax Congestion tax is intended to improve accessibility on our roads, improve our environment and part-finance the West Swedish Agreement. Around 38 control points will be placed at the entrances and exits to the congestion zone. Vehicle number plates will be photographed auto- matically at control points. The Swedish Transport Agency will send a payment slip to the vehicle owner. Payment can be made by direct debit. Some vehicles will be automatically exempt from congestion tax, for in- 2012 April logiken.se stance motorbikes and emergency vehicles. Anyone holding a Disability Parking Permit can apply to the Swedish Tax Agency for exemption for a vehicle. Congestion tax will be charged from 1 January 2013.

  • Considerable Investment and Immense Expansion During the 1900S Laid the Foundation for Transforming the Port of Gothenburg Into Today’S International Maritime Hub
    400 YEARS OF EXPERIENCES, IDEAS, ADVENTURES AND SUCCESSES. When work started on building the Stora Hamnkanalen canal at Brunnsparken in 1620 nobody could foresee that this was the start of what would be Scandinavia’s largest port. Ever since then, the Port of Gothenburg has played a central role and served as the strong link in Sweden’s contacts and trade with the rest of the world. It was from here that the Swedish East India Company through its voyages to Asia transformed Gothenburg into northern Europe’s prime commercial centre in the 18th century. It was from here that hundreds of thousands of Swedes emigrated to the USA in the 19th century. And it was here that huge investments and vast expansion in the 20th century laid the foundation for what has made the Port of Gothenburg into today’s top player among international ports. For 400 years the Port of Gothenburg has served as Sweden’s gateway to the world. Now we’re looking ahead with our sights firmly set on becoming the world’s most competitive port – to guarantee Swedish trade and industry global access for at least the next 400 years. Elvir Dzanic, CEO, Gothenburg Port Authority 7 GUSTAV II ADOLF In October 1619 King Gustav II Adolf issued a decree regarding the first “order for construction assistance” for the port. It was the starting-point for the Port of Gothenburg. STORA HAMNKANALEN Gothenburg’s first purpose-built canal was Stora Hamnkanalen, built in the 1620s. THE PORT OF GOTHENBURG IS OLDER THAN THE CITY OF GOTHENBURG.
