As autonomous systems move from concept to large-scale deployment, the role of RF, spectrum, and wireless connectivity has never been more critical. At XPONENTIAL 2026, taking place May 11-14 in Detroit, these enabling technologies will be front and center across both the exhibit hall and technical program.
From resilient communications and spectrum management to radar, sensing, and electronic warfare considerations, attendees will gain insight into the RF technologies supporting real-world autonomy across defense, infrastructure, and commercial operations.
XPONENTIAL brings together the full stack of autonomy, connecting platforms, payloads, AI, and the communications systems that make them operational. For engineers, technologists, and decision-makers working in RF and wireless, it’s an opportunity to see how their work integrates into broader autonomous systems at scale.
At XPONENTIAL 2026, attendees will:
- Explore RF and wireless solutions across the XPO Hall, including communications, radar, and sensing technologies
- Learn from technical sessions focused on spectrum, connectivity, and system integration challenges
- Connect with companies and leaders developing next-generation RF-enabled autonomous capabilities
As autonomy adoption accelerates, understanding how RF and wireless technologies support performance, security, and scalability is essential. XPONENTIAL provides a unique environment to engage with these challenges and opportunities firsthand.
