SDR2026 — Software Defined Radio Conference
The Software Defined Radio Conference 2026 brings together academia, industry, defence, and the amateur radio community to share the work driving the field forward. As RF and spectrum engineering re-emerge as central disciplines, SDR sits at the intersection of advanced research and grass-roots experimentation — a domain where the amateur radio community and the broader citizen science tradition continue to shape the tools, techniques, and open infrastructure that the wider ecosystem depends on.
Now in its second year, SDR2026 returns to Adelaide on 28 September – 2 October 2026, supported by the DST Group Chair of Electromagnetic Warfare, Professor Sam Drake. The five-day program spans hands-on workshops and technical talks, and concludes with a Classified Electromagnetic Warfare session.
