Bio
Christopher Semanson received his B.S.E. in Electrical and computer engineering
from the University
of Michigan Dearborn,
where he is also working on his master’s degree in Electrical
Engineering. He has previously worked
for Chrysler in Telematics, Active and Passive
Safety, and Hybrid Systems where he focused on End of line testing, tool
development, and validation. In 2009 he
moved to the University
of Michigan Dearborn to
work as a graduate studies research assistant in Dr. Chris Mi’s power
electronic research group, where he focuses on embedded software
development. In fall of 2009, he took
four of the IEEE EMC Society
laboratory manual experiments, adopted them to fit Henry Ott’s
Electromagnetic Compatibility book, and implemented them in addition to a new
lab as well as a design project. He also
obtained a grant from the IEEE EMC
Society to aid in his laboratory development work.

Abstract:
The understanding and
recognizing of proper electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
techniques and concepts is now more important than ever, however while classes
will cover these concepts linking them to real world, practical scenarios is
often overlooked in undergraduate programs.
Thus the need for a laboratory curriculum which can bridge the gap between the classroom and the real world is
realized. In Fall of 2009 exactly this was done. Utilizing the EMC Laboratory Manual a series of labs were
modified to follow the class curriculum and give a practical understanding of
the concepts covered in class. The labs
used include four pre-existing labs, a new lab used as an introduction to EMC and a design project for ABET
accreditation. Each experiment uses
concepts experienced in the previous experiment to build a solid understanding
of each subject.
