Join us for a complimentary lunch sponsored by SteppIR and Advanced Test Equipment Corp (ATEC). Following lunch, attendees will hear FOUR experts present on modern antenna and electromagnetic measurements to boost your test efficiency, reliability, and repeatibility. In addition to the two presentations shown below, this half-day event also features speakers Zhong Chen with ETS-Lindgren and Dennis Lewis with Boeing. Mr. Chen will present "Site VSWR for Anechoic Chamber Performance Evaluation – Past, Present, and Future" Mr. Lewis will present "Complex Cavity Measurement Techniques for the Assessment of Aircraft Electromagnetic Environments" Following the presentations, Dr. Kent will present a Private Lecture at the Museum of Flight on a few key US aircraft spanning 1935-1960, many of which involved game changing technologies for their day. Within time constraints, we’ll visit some key fighters (P-38, P-51, F-14 Tomcat) and bombers (B-17, B-29, B-47) as well as the SR-71, which fielded the first stealthy technologies. Did you know for instance that the B-29 was so advanced it had over 100 separate patents including the first airborne analog computer system! Did you also know that the re-engined B-50 Superfortress became Lucky Lady II, the first aircraft to fly around the world non-stop, during a 94-hour flight in 1949? Learn about the fascinating story behind these engineering marvels from an aeronautical expert and noted storyteller, Dr. Brian Kent. Wear comfortable walking shoes! Workshop attendees are free to attend this group tour OR visit any of the open exhibits on your own at the Museum of Flight until the 5:00 pm closing time. Access to the Museum of Flight is provided at no charge to all registered workshop attendees who are wearing the museum wristband provided upon arrival.

The Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) is a nonprofit that provides leading propane safety and training programs and invests in research and development of new propane-powered technologies. PERC is operated and funded by the propane industry. PERC programs benefit a variety of markets including transportation, agriculture, commercial landscaping, residential, and commercial building. PERC was authorized by the U.S. Congress with the passage of the Propane Education and Research Act (PERA), signed into law on Oct. 11, 1996. PERC is governed by a 21-member board appointed by the National Propane Gas Association and the GPA Midstream Association Co-sponsored by: IEEE Power and Energy Society Speaker(s): Dr. Gokul Vishwanathan , Isaac Garaway, CEO Qnergy Agenda: 12:00 pm PDT IEEE Anouncements 12:02 pm PDT Introduction of Speakers 12:04 pm PDT Propane 12:30 pm PDT Qnerpm 12:50 pm PDT Q&A Seattle , Washington, United States, 98001, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/279074

It appears 2021 will continue to look like how 2020 ended – offices will remain less than 25% occupied. Digital Workspaces will grow next year as half of the workforce will choose not to go back to the office. Remote workers will be looking for options to save money and consolidate their communication i.e. voice, text messaging, multimedia messaging and fax from any device in any location. Apps are increasing and will drive the cost of managing/monitoring these apps. Customers can benefit from one app that provides all their communications from a common dashboard with one number. We see this with many of our customers regardless of the industry they are in. The benefits of having a simple communication for each business are: - One number for all communications - Simple chat and SMS - Simple collaborations through video conferencing - Simple Analytics – data driven businesses are increasing - Simple Integration Every business will be finding ways to save money and be more profitable next year. IEEE is no different than other businesses. Education is the key to find ways to increase productivity and reduce expense. You don’t want to miss this informational session!

The Chicago Chapter and co-sponsoring EMCS units welcomes everyone to this informative and entertaining presentation about the roots of our profession. The practice of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is generally understood as beginning with the military in the 1950s. Work in the field was mostly limited to military applications until about 1980, when the FCC in the US and agencies in other countries responded to broadcast interference complaints by setting RF emission limits on commercial products. Though it wasn’t called EMC at the time, those techniques were applied in the late 19th century. Guglielmo Marconi’s company demonstrated wireless telegraphy to the British navy, hoping for a contract to sell the equipment. However, the spark-gap noise bursts transmitted by Marconi’s wireless limited communication to one pair of devices at a time and Marconi had to fix it in order to close the deal. The stories of ambition, salesmanship, and resourcefulness give a colorful backdrop to our work in EMC. In many ways, EMC practices can be traced back to the very beginning of the radio art. This talk will relate those stories and give a deeper perspective on the often unappreciated work of the EMC engineer.
