About the Conference

The National Conference on Communications (NCC) is arguably the most important national conference today in the area of communications and signal processing. The NCC is organized by the IITs and the IISc in rotation, and is mentored by the Joint Telematics Group of the IITs and the IISc. In a span of little more than two decades, the conference has acquired substantial recognition and is now widely known in many countries overseas. More information on the history and previous editions of NCC can be found on this page. NCC 2020, the 26th edition of NCC, will be held at Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
