Project description
Tailored EMI risk and hazard analysis and mitigation throughout a product’s life cycle
With the ever-increasing complexity and sophistication of electronic devices, and their use in safety- and mission-critical contexts such as autonomous driving or medical applications, mitigating electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a pressing challenge. The standard approach is to apply certain defined mitigation techniques during the design stage, but this one-size-fits-all solution does not ensure the required performance of today’s and tomorrow’s technologies. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the PETER project will develop dedicated hazard-and-risk analysis techniques and effective EMI risk-reduction techniques to identify and mitigate all EMI-related risks and hazards for a system under development and throughout its life cycle.
Objective
Sophisticated electronic technologies are increasingly used in mission- and safety-critical systems where electromagnetic interference (EMI) can result in substantial risks to people and the environment. Currently, EMI engineering follows a rule-based approach, which is unable to cope with complex modern situations. With this rules-based approach, during the design stage, guidelines are prescribed, which result in the application of a set of mitigation techniques, which are verified in the finished product against standards. This rule-based approach is costly, but with no guarantee of the required performance. This is particularly so for sensitive medical applications or the full-autonomous systems that are becoming ever-more common in our society. What we need is a risk-based approach, which is what PETER, the Pan-European Training, Research & Education Network on Electromagnetic Risk Management, will provide. PETER will train 15 young engineers in topics related to the development of high-tech systems that maintain reliability and safety over their full life-cycle, despite complex EMI, such as in hospitals or transport systems. This will be achieved using best practices and state-of-the-art EM engineering, reliability engineering, functional safety, risk management and system engineering, to create the risk-based EMC approach. The multidisciplinary, multinational doctoral training program will provide the researchers with experience and allow them to develop and in time lead their own area of research. PETER is closely aligned with the high-priority areas of the EU, addressing many Horizon 2020 thematics, e.g. Industrial Leadership (Advanced manufacturing and processing), Societal Challenges (Smart, green and integrated transport; Secure, clean and efficient energy) and Excellent Science. But the most important output of PETER will be 15 highly qualified people who have been trained to tackle many of the problems now being faced by European industry.
