Communication\, remote sensin g\, integrated command/control/surveillance systems\, intelligent transpor tation systems\, medicine\, environment\, education\, marketing\, and defe nse are only a few areas where EM fields have critical importance. We have witnessed the transformation from Engineering Electromagnetics to Electro magnetic Engineering for the last few decades after being surrounded by EM waves everywhere. Among many others\, EM engineering deals with broad ran ge of problems from antenna design to EM scattering\, indoor–outdoor rad iowave propagation to wireless communication\, radar systems to integrated surveillance\, subsurface imaging to novel materials\, EM compatibility t o nano-systems\, electroacoustic devices to electro-optical systems\, etc. The range of the devices we use in our daily life has extended from DC up to Terahertz frequencies. We have had both large-scale (kilometers-wide) and small-scale (nanometers) EM systems. A large portion of these systems are broadband and digital and must operate in close proximity that results in severe EM interference problems. Engineers must take EM issues into ac count from the earliest possible design stages. This necessitates establis hing an intelligent balance between strong mathematical background (theory )\, engineering experience (practice)\, and modeling and numerical computa tions (simulation).\nThis Distinguished/keynote lecture aims at a broad-br ush look at current complex EM problems as well as certain teaching / trai ning challenges that confront wave-oriented EM engineering in the 21st cen tury\, in a complex computer and technology-driven world with rapidly shif ting societal and technical priorities.\n\nMaritime Multi-Sensor Integrate d Surveillance Systems Based on Surface Wave High Frequency Radars\nProf. Levent Sevgi (Istanbul Technical University\, IEEE AP-S DLC Chair)\n\nCoun tries with substantial coastal regions require greatly enhanced systems to monitor activity occurring within their Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ). A ccording to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) o f 992\, participating countries have extensive exploitation rights within the EEZ\, which extends up to 200 nautical miles (nm) from shore. Activity will include isolated or grouped\, moving and/or anchored surface targets and low-flying aircraft. The targets may be military/commercial\, friend/ foe\, small/large. Besides the economic benefits\, a participating country carries responsibilities such as prevention of smuggling\, terrorism and piracy\; the effective management and protection of offshore fisheries\; s earch and rescue\, vessel traffic services\, pollutant control as well as meteorological and oceanographic data collection. Traditional land-based m icrowave radars are limited to line-of-sight\, which means a maximum range of 50-60km even with an elevated radar platform. The EEZ can be covered b y microwave radar in a patrol aircraft\, but requires three to five aircra ft (well above 20\,000ft) with many hours on station. Satellites have neit her the spatial nor the temporal resolution to provide this surveillance i n real-time. Sky wave high frequency (HF) radars can be used for this purp ose\, but they need large installations\, are expensive and detection of s urface targets is still limited. Optimum sensor for EEZ surveillance seems to be the Surface Wave HF radar.\nThis DL/Keynote talk is about modeling and simulation strategies and challenges in integrated maritime surveillan ce systems based on High Frequency Surface Wave Radars (HFSWR). Topics to be covered include fundamental radar concepts\, HFSWR signal characteristi cs (signal\, noise\, clutter\, interference\, etc.)\, Surface wave propaga tion modeling and mixed-path effects\, Transmit/Receive Antenna systems an d beam forming/steering\, Target reflectivity and RCS prediction/reduction \, and Stochastic modeling.\n\nRadar Developments in Argentina: Projects a t INVAP S.
