Distinguished Lecturer
Dr. Mathias Magdowski
Term 2023-2024
Mathias Magdowski received his Dipl.-Ing. and Dr.-Ing. Degree in electrical engineering from the Otto-von-Guericke University, Magdeburg, Germany in 2008 and 2012, respectively, where he is currently working as a scientific co-worker at the Institute for Medical Engineering. His current research interests include analytical and statistical methods for modeling EMC problems, especially the field-to-wire coupling of statistic fields in mode-stirred chambers. He is a member of the corporate research group 767.3-767.4 within the German Commission for Electrical, Electronic & Information Technologies and serves as the co-convenor of the Joint Working Group on Reverberation Chambers within the IEC and CISPR. Mathias Magdowski also volunteers as a marketing and member services coordinator within the IEEE German EMC Chapter and in the IEEE Student Branch in Magdeburg. He is available to present the following talks:
Talk 1: Well Stirred is Half Measured – EMC Tests in Reverberation Chambers
This talk explains basic properties of reverberation chambers and presents some exemplary practical chambers with their parameters. The normative chamber validation as well as emission measurements and immunity tests are briefly explained. Finally, advantages and disadvantages in comparison with other EMC test environments are discussed.
Talk 2: Why the Wire is on Fire – Electromagnetic Field Coupling to Transmission Lines
Cables and transmission lines attached to devices and complex systems may act as parasitic receiving antennas and can guide unwanted radiated electromagnetic disturbances into connected sensitive electronics like sensors or measurement units. In this talk, the basic field-to-wire coupling phenomena will be described. Analytical and numerical calculations will be explained and compared with experimental results.
Talk 3: Robust, Precise, Fast – Chose Two for Radiated EMC Measurements!
Efficient and accurate measurement of the radiated emission at high frequencies can be a challenge, especially for electrically large unintentional radiators and devices under test. This talk will explain the procedure as well as the corresponding advantages and disadvantages for different EMC test environments such as anechoic rooms, wave guides, and reverberation chambers.
