EMI /EMC and Signal Integrity: Principles, Techniques and Applications

By Prof. Amitabha Bhattacharya | IIT Kharagpur

Learners enrolled: 678 | Exam registration: 21

ABOUT THE COURSE:
The course “EMI /EMC and Signal Integrity: Principles, Techniques and Applications” covers a broad spectrum of the high frequency RF circuit design issues from the perspective of the electromagnetic interference mitigation. It covers the engineering modeling of source, system and sink with thorough and eloquent analysis, and finally shows applications of the technique in modern electronics industry.

It first develops a simplified model called “EMC model” to introduce the basic concepts of the EMC design. Then it introduces the common EMC units and EMC requirements for electronic systems. Then it introduces some elegant techniques to derive the signal spectra commonly encountered in industry. Keeping the same pedagogic style, it also shows the elegant techniques for introducing the basic emitters and basic lines in the same framework. With this framework it then introduces the concepts of Radiated emission and susceptibility and thereafter conducted emission and susceptibility. The concept of crosstalk, shielding and electrostatic discharges are then touched upon. Finally the electronics system design for EM compatibility is emphasized at the end of the course.

This course will not only help the undergraduate and graduate students by providing them with fundamental concepts of electromagnetic compatibility and signal integrity but also will help the design engineer to get familiar with different state of the art techniques of EMC design. In a nutshell, this course would lay the foundation for further exploring the vast area of EMC design by the course participants

Instructor bio

Prof. Amitabha Bhattacharya

IIT Kharagpur

Prof. Amitabha Bhattacharya was born in Kolkata, West Bengal in the year 1964. He received his B.Tech, (E&ECE) Degree from IIT Kharagpur in 1986, M.E. (E&TCE) from Jadavpur University in 1994 and Ph.D. (E. & ECE) from IIT Kharagpur in 1998.

He started his professional career in 1986 by joining as Junior Research Engineer in an ISRO- sponsored research project at IIT Kharagpur and continued thereafter as a Senior Research Assistant in a DRDO sponsored Research Project till 1991. In 1997, he joined SAMEER, Mumbai and then Defence Lab, Jodhpur as a Research Scientist. From 2000 onwards he joined teaching profession, first as an Assistant Professor in the Electronics and Instrument Department of Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad and then in 2007, in the faculty of Electronics and Electrical Communication Engineering Department of IIT Kharagpur in 2007. Presently he is working as an Associate Professor in the same Department and is involved in the teaching and research activities of the RF and Microwave Group of the E&ECE Department.

Prof. Bhattacharya‘s research interest is in the areas of Microwave Imaging, Microwave Propagation, High Power Microwaves and Microwave Stealth Technology. He has published 97 international research publications, two technical reports for Indian Defense, written a Tata McGraw Hill published text book on “Digital Communication” and co-authored a book chapter on “Modal Analysis of Reflector backed Hybrid Printed dipole antenna”. He has also developed 3 NPTEL MOOC online courses on microwave technology. He has been principal Investigator of 19 research projects and consultancies sponsored by agencies like DRDO, ISRO, Indian Army, BARC, MHRD, Wipro etc., has conducted 18 short term courses specially training scientists from HAL, ISRO, DRDO, Indian tri-services etc. in the areas of Electromagnetic Environments and Microwave Technologies. Dr. Bhattacharya has supervised six Ph.D. thesis and thirty five postgraduate theses. Presently he is supervising nine research students.
