We are happy to welcome all our participants in Odessa - a beautiful Ukrainian city on the Black Sea coast. Odessa is the 3rd largest city in Ukraine and the largest city along the entire Black Sea. It gives you a feeling of being somewhere on the Mediterranean coast, since it has been heavily influenced by French and Italian art styles. For a few September days (5–11 September, 2016) the city is going to host the 2016 8th International Conference on Ultrawideband and Ultrashort Impulse Signals (UWBUSIS-2016). The venue of the conference is a recreational base situated at the seaside. The main organizers of the conference are V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University, Kharkiv IEEE Joint Chapter, and I. I. Mechnikov Odessa National University.
