Network for Evaluation of Propagation and Interference Training

Project description

Reverberation chambers for fundamental research and understanding electromagnetic interference

The widespread use of modern communication systems, the increased penetration of automated systems, the increased complexity of large systems and infrastructures, and modern society's increased reliance on technology all create an urgent need to recruit and train electromagnetic effects researchers. Most people remember the buzzing sound the radio emitted when an SMS or a call arrived on those older mobile phones. This problem appears to have been resolved, but a slew of other, often worse, interference issues remain, threatening the safety and functionality of our technological environment. Through fundamental research and collaboration with industry, the MSCA-funded NEPIT project will pave the way for novel methodologies, safer designs, improved testing, and greener solutions in complex high-tech systems for electromagnetic compatibility using reverberation chambers.

Objective

The widespread use of modern communication systems, the higher penetration of automated systems in automotive engineering, surgery, high-tech machines etc., the higher complexity present in those interconnected systems and the higher dependence of modern society on technology, creates an urgent need to recruit and train researchers in electromagnetic compatibility. This interconnected systems-of-systems are creating a complex electromagnetic environment in which interoperability of the electrical and electronic equipment has to be achieved. A highly trained cadre of engineers is required to lead in this area and the aim of this initiative is to train such people, connecting them to the industry for implementation of the new acquired and developed knowledge and experience. The NEPIT consortium has been brought together not only to train qualified researchers but also to provide the fundamental research that underpins future technological developments. The multidisciplinary multinational doctoral training program will provide the trainee researchers with a complete broad experience and at the same time allows them to develop and eventually lead their focused area of research. The program will focus on the development of novel methods to model, simulate, design, evaluate and test complex systems for electromagnetic compatibility. NEPIT will also develop corrective economic measures for safe, reliable, efficient and greener complex systems. Specific innovations expected to be achieved through NEPIT are methodologies to optimize the design, to reduce risks, and to improve the testing of complex high-tech systems. Dissemination methods to realize optimal impact will include scientific publications, presentations and workshops, summer schools, training of engineers within industry as well as communication through newsletters, interviews, school visits, websites and social media.
