Experiments and demonstrations at EMC+SIPI 2017

Once again, the Hardware Experiments & Demonstrations and Computer Modeling & Simulations sessions, inaugurated by Andy Drozd in 1992, were a signature event at our annual symposium held in Washington, DC. Each year these sessions collectively provide attendees the opportunity to not only observe an exciting, educational, and thought provoking series of experiments and demonstrations provided by some of the EMC Society’s best and brightest practitioners, but to also directly interact with the presenters themselves. As a result, attendees are able to gain a deeper understanding of fundamental theory and its application, as well as learn of new applications, all of which can be adopted to make them better EMC engineers. Teammates Sam Connor and Bob Scully were able to recruit skilled presentations highlighting 14 hardware experiments and six computer software demonstrations for the 2017 IEEE International Symposium on EMC and Signal/Power Integrity this past August. The outstanding practitioners who brought their efforts forward aptly rewarded symposium attendees who made their way to the back of the exhibit hall to observe and participate in these sessions.
