Dr. Sergiu Radu of Oracle of Oracle Corp.

Every electronic equipment use some type of shielding, and from a theoretical point of view,  electromagnetic shielding is among the difficult areas of EMC. The presentations is introducing basic shielding concepts, insisting on their practical limitations, and presents the typical engineering problems associated with shielding. Among the aspects discussed are the materials used for shielding, chassis resonances, shielding integrity problems (seams, joints, apertures, perf patterns, etc.), aperture coupling and shield's grounding.

Biography: Sergiu Radu (M’93, SM’02) received the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering (Electronics) from the Technical University of Iasi, Iasi, Romania in 1980 and 1995, respectively. He was an Associate Professor at the Technical University of Iasi until 1996, involved in Electromagnetic Compatibility teaching and research. From 1996 to 1998, he was a Visiting Scholar at the University of Missouri at Rolla, currently Missouri University of Science and Technology, as part of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Laboratory. In 1998, he joined the Electromagnetic Compatibility Engineering group at Sun Microsystems, which became a part of Oracle Corp. in 2010. He is currently Director of Hardware Development at Oracle leading the EMC Design group in Santa Clara, CA., involved in chassis level, PCB level and chip level EMC design for all Oracle hardware products. His role includes also the development and implementation of platform level EMC Design architecture, design methodologies, and better EMC prediction techniques. He holds seven US patents for EMI reduction techniques in electronic systems and has published more than 50 technical papers, presentations and reports on electromagnetic compatibility related subjects. He is NARTE Certified EMC Engineer since February 1998, a former IEEE EMC Distinguished Lecturer (2009-2010), and a reviewer for IEEE Transactions on EMC.
