Every year, over one million people in the U.S. rush to the emergency room after experiencing their first seizure or seizure-like event. For many, the journey that follows is frustrating and uncertain. Epilepsy is notoriously difficult to diagnose - so much so that nearly 30% of patients receive the wrong diagnosis. The most common mistake? Being told they have epilepsy when they do not. These misdiagnosed patients spend months or even years trying ineffective medications, enduring unnecessary side effects, and living with the fear of seizures they don’t actually have only to later discover they have a completely different condition. Why is diagnosing epilepsy so difficult? Unlike other diseases, there has been no reliable biomarker. Our team has identified an EEG-based biomarker for epilepsy, a game-changing discovery that is currently being tested in three major epilepsy centers across the U.S. This new tool, EpiScalp, has the potential to revolutionize epilepsy diagnosis, ensuring patients receive the right answers and the right treatment from their very first visit to a <a href="http://neurologist.Speaker(s):" target="_blank" title="neurologist.Speaker(s):">neurologist.Speaker(s): Sridevi Sarma, PhD - EMBS Distinguished LecturerVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/537663

[]TECHNICAL PROGRAMThis program is dedicated to the memory of Omar Zubi, Boeing's longtime EMC Lab Manager, who passed away suddenly on January 31, 2026.EMC Challenges for ‘New Space’ Small Satellite DevelopmentBy Russell Carroll, EMI/EMC Consulting Engineer, EMI Sleuth, El Segundo, CA, USAAbstract: This presentation discusses EMC challenges seen by engineers in the ‘new space’ world of small satellite development. These challenges include non-standardized launch vehicle and host interface requirements, unspecified lightning protection requirements, and schedule constraints on EMC testing and development. Technical challenges include power and signal isolation, crosstalk from long pigtails in wire harnesses, limited physical space for filters and shielding, and large apertures in the vehicle faraday <a href="http://cage.Speaker" target="_blank" title="cage.Speaker">cage.Speaker Biography: Russell Carroll is a consulting engineer with extensive experience in the analysis, design, and testing of electromagnetic effects on units and systems including space satellites and industrial electronics. His research is focused on developing useful analysis tools and methods for unit and system level EMC analysis. Mr. Carroll is a registered Professional Engineer and an iNARTE certified EMC Engineer.

By integrating Cylindrical Mode Filtered Site Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (CMF SVSWR) with Compressed Sensing (CS), we address inherent challenges in traditional SVSWR methods, such as inconsistency and slow data acquisition. CMF SVSWR utilizes circular path measurements and mode domain post-processing to discern antenna and chamber reflections, crucial for comprehensive VSWR analysis. Compressed Sensing, a data-driven machine learning technique, exploits signal sparsity to reconstruct data from fewer randomly sampled measurement points, thereby reducing test times and eliminating the need for precise turntable <a href="http://positioning.Speaker" target="_blank" title="positioning.Speaker">positioning.Speaker Biography: Zhong Chen is Chief Engineer at ETS-Lindgren, located in Cedar Park, Texas. He has more than 25 years of experience in RF testing, anechoic chamber design, as well as EMC antenna and field probe design and measurements. He is an active member of the ANSC C63® committee currently serving as Vice-Chair and is the immediate past Chair of Subcommittee 1 which is responsible for the antenna calibration (ANSI C63.5) and chamber/test site validation standards (ANSI C63.4 and the ANSI C63.25 series). Mr. Chen is chair of the IEEE Standard 1309 committee responsible for developing calibration standards for field probes, and IEEE Standard 1128 for absorber evaluation. He is a former member of the IEEE EMC Society Board of Governors and the Antenna Measurement Techniques Association (AMTA) Board of Directors. He is a past Distinguished Lecturer for the EMC Society and is recognized as an AMTA Fellow. His research interests include measurement uncertainty, time domain measurements for site validation and antenna calibration, and development of novel RF absorber materials. Several papers authored and co-authored by Mr. Chen have received best paper recognition at global conferences.

Zhong will provide an overview of the LIVE demo showing the Cylindrical Mode Filtered SVSWR (CMF SVSWR) measurement technique. CMF SVSWR is measured by placing the transmit antenna (typically a low gain omni-directional antenna) at the edge of the turntable and performing a single cut vector pattern measurement. The vector S21 as a function of turntable angle at each frequency is transformed to the spectrum domain, where a filter can be applied to mathematically remove the chamber effects. The SVSWR is derived by comparing the original pattern in the chamber to the “clean” filtered pattern. This CMF SVSWR provides a more comprehensive evaluation of the EMC chamber quiet zone and can be readily measured without any special positioning fixtures. The demonstration will show an entire measurement process including the post processing which can be performed in real time. This new measurement technique is under consideration for the new draft standard ANSI C63.25.3 under development by the ANSC C63® committee for EMC test sites from 18 GHz to 40 <a href="http://GHz.Agenda:" target="_blank" title="GHz.Agenda:">GHz.Agenda: 1:00 pm - Registration Check-In and Complimentary Lunch Courtesy of the Seattle EMC Chapter1:40 pm - Welcome from Seattle EMC Chapter Chair, Janet O'Neil with ETS-Lindgren and Seattle AP/ED/MTT Chapter Chair, Dennis Lewis with Boeing1:45 pm - EMC Challenges for ‘New Space’ Small Satellite Development By Russell Carroll, EMI/EMC Consulting Engineer, EMI Sleuth, El Segundo, CA, USA2:30 pm - CISPR and ANSC C63® Overview on Site Validation Measurements from 18 GHz to 40 GHz - Latest Advances in EMC Test Site Evaluation Using Advanced Antenna Measurement Techniques By Zhong Chen, Chief Engineer, ETS-Lindgren, Cedar Park, Texas, USA3:30 pm - Refreshment Break3:50 pm - Overview of Boeing EMC Lab and Demo Set Up by Dennis Lewis with Boeing and Zhong Chen with ETS-Lindgren4:20 pm - Technical tour of the Boeing EMC Lab with LIVE demo5:00 pm - AdjournBldg: 2-122, Boeing, 7701 14th Ave Soutn, Seattle, Washington, United States, 98108
