INDUSTRIAL ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY

The industrial electromagnetic compatibility is based on the study of the effects of electromagnetic fields created by electrical devices and on the design of systems to reduce their impact on themselves, on other devices or on human beings.
The aim of the course is to introduce the students to analytical models and technical aspects related to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC): radiated and conducted emissions, crosstalk, electromagnetic shielding, EMC governmental European requirements for commercial products, EMC measurements for verification of compliance, system design for EMC.

Frontal lectures on theory topics carried out by a video projector. CAD laboratory using numerical simulation software.
