Road transportation, which accounts for 22 percent of greenhouse gas emissions, is undergoing a major transformation with the advent of ridesharing, autonomous driving, and vehicle electrification. Collectively these technologies, in conjunction with renewable sources of electricity, have the potential to dramatically reduce the negative impact of road transportation on the health of the planet. The successful convergence of these technologies will require electric vehicles that are low cost and fully autonomous. These attributes can be realized through dynamic wireless charging. However, this will require wireless charging technology that is well beyond current capabilities and opens new areas of research related to power and transportation infrastructure. Using examples from research on capacitive wireless charging (as opposed to the more common inductive techniques), which leverage very high frequency power electronics, this talk will highlight the opportunities and challenges in dynamic wireless charging of electric vehicles.

Workshop Abstract: Any kind of measurement, particularly when carried out for scientific or professional purposes, requires consideration of inherent measurement errors. Evaluation of measurement uncertainty in electromagnetic compatibility and antenna characterization applications is the common thread that connects the presentations in this workshop. Sophisticated data processing techniques and novel measurement methods are presented aiming at enhancing the accuracy of electromagnetic field measurements with specific reference to errors induced by the measuring environment (reverberation chambers and anechoic chambers), robotic positioning systems, and a model-based system engineering approach to understand contributions from various sources of uncertainties. This program is designed to apply to general EMC and Antenna Measurements. Speakers will actively encourage questions in order to better educate attendees on the importance of addressing measurement uncertainity. Co-sponsored by: IEEE Bangalore Section Speaker(s): John Ladbury, Zhong Chen, Vignesh Rajamani, Dennis Lewis Agenda: 10:00 am - Welcome by Bangalore EMC Chapter Chair, Dr. Ananth, iAMPS 10:15 am - Uncertainty Analysis from the Early Days to Modern Usage of Reverberation Chambers by John Ladbury, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Boulder, CO, USA 10:45 am - Uncertainty Contributions from EMC Test Site Imperfections for Above 1 GHz Measurements by Zhong Chen, ETS-Lindgren, Cedar Park, TX, USA 11:15 am - Evaluation of Measurement Uncertainties in a Multipurpose Robotic Antenna Test System By Dennis Lewis, The Boeing Company, Seattle, WA, USA 11:45 am - Closong Comments by Vignesh Rajamani, President of the IEEE EMC Society, Exponent, Phoenix, Arizona, USA 12:00 pm - Complimentary Lunch at the Cafeteria; we will reserve a seating area so attendees can visit with the speakers and each other following the lectures. 1:00 pm - Adjournment Room: IEEE India Headquarters #26/1, 5th Floor , World Trade Center Bangalore , Brigade Gateway Campus, Dr. Rajkumar Road, Malleswaram (West), Bangalore, Karnataka, India
