|
Organizers: |
Wolfgang J.R. Hoefer, Univerisity

|
Abstract: |
This full-day tutorial provides an introduction to the theoretical foundations, the operational characteristics and the practical engineering applications of time domain electromagnetic simulators. The purpose of this tutorial is to introduce practitioners who are mostly familiar with the classic frequency-domain approaches, to the concepts and operating principles of time-domain electromagnetic simulators, and to show how these translate into their special properties as engineering tools for high-frequency, signal integrity and EMC work. |

Tutorial 3: |
Fundamentals of Electromagnetic
Compatibility and Signal Integrity |
|
Speaker: |
Mark Montrose, Montrose Compliance
Inc., USA |
|
Abstract: |
For those just entering the exciting field of EMC, trying to figure out what to learn and details of fundamental concepts can be a job in itself. Due to lack of universities not offering courses in EMC, (some aspects of EMC may however, be discussed) this course presents a potpourri of concepts and information in a simplified manner. Most engineers enter the field of EMC by default and are thus untrained to think in terms of propagated fields (frequency domain) instead of voltage and current (time domain), which causes electric and magnetic fields to travel through free space or a transmission line. The focus of this presentation is on fundamental principles that help explain EMC in simplistic terms. Topics of discussion include EMC requirements, non-ideal behavior of passive components, signal spectra, fundamentals of signal integrity related to printed circuit boards, shielding and grounding for EMC.

Workshop 2: |
Transportation and System EMC |
|
Speaker: |
Prof. Sergio A. Pignari,
Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy |
|
Abstract: |
The workshop consists of three parts: Part I is in a more general and tutorial fashion on EMC assurance and management in Fixed Installation; it could be taken as prerequisite to Part II, which deals with technologies employed in high-speed railways and related critical EMC issues, involving modern trains and infrastructure. The third part shall cover the automotive EMC Due to the increasing amount of electronic components throughout a vehicle, EMC tests on the subsystem (module) level as well as on the full vehicle become more and more important. This talk will first of all give an update on the current standards situation in the automotive industry. The speaker will overview the details of the different sub tests.

Abstract: |
Clock frequencies of high-speed semiconductor IC’s, packages, and systems are increased over GHz frequency ranges. Management of current wave propagation, loss, decoupling, resonance, and radiation at the PDN and the return current path becomes a crucial part of the IC, package, and system co-design in order to maintain power and ground integrity of the system. In this workshop, we will discuss fundamental design principles and challenges to achieve the electromagnetic reliability, in particular the topics include PCB EMC modeling and design; Power and Ground Integrity Design in High-speed Chip, Package and PCB ; semiconductor device EMC, IC and System-wide Electromagnetic Reliability.

Workshop 5: |
RF Biological Effects and
Standards Update |
|
Speaker: |
Dr C-K. Chou, Corporate EME
Research Laboratory, Motorola Inc., USA |
|
Abstract: |
The dramatic increase in man-made radio frequency (RF) fields in the environment during the last few decades has led to public health concerns in many parts of the world. Specifically, questions have been raised on the safety of exposure to RF energy emitted from radar, television and radio communication systems, microwave ovens, video display terminals, and most recently, mobile telephones and base stations. In this presentation, recent epidemiological, human, animal and in vitro studies will be summarized. Reviews of independent expert panels and health authorities will be discussed also. Proper engineering and biological study designs will be emphasized to ensure any observed effects are genuine RF-field induced effects and not due to experimental artifacts. RF dosimetry will be emphasized because the complexity of RF dosimetry is part of the reason why there are so many controversial reports in the literature. Recently developed standards for protecting human health as well as measurement standards for RF emitting devices for compliance requirements will be discussed. Safety standards include the new IEEE C95.1 human exposure guidelines and IEEE C95.7 RF safety program recommendations. The IEEE C95.1 standard will be compared to the 1998 guidelines of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection. An overview of global RF safety regulations will be presented. Measurement standards to be discussed include IEEE 1528 and IEC 62209 part 1 (characterizing mobile phone exposure in the head) and IEC 62209 part 2 (two-way radios and body worn devices). Harmonization of both RF safety and measurement standards is important for minimizing confusion in global regulations and public concerns. |

Workshop 6: |
Naval EMC Engineering |
|
Organizers: |
Frank B.J. Leferink,
Thales/University of Twente, Netherlands |
|
Abstract: |
Modern warships contain a huge number of electromagnetic sensors and electronics. At the same time, the operational shift towards littoral warfare calls for smaller ships, without loss of capabilities. This brings the many sensors in even closer proximity. Functionality may require higher EM-field levels while safety (RadHaz) tries to avoid these in certain areas. As a result, EMC is becoming more and more a critical issue. EM engineering is an important factor in the total systems engineering effort. Naval EMC engineering involves the necessary activities from concept to deployment phase. In this workshop, shipboard EMC installations will be discussed, including bonding and grounding and lightning protection, as well as modelling and simulations of electromagnetic fields. Furthermore, validation of (large) systems onboard (in-situ) naval vessels will be shown. Some visions about naval ships in the near future will be presented too.
