Measurement system variability in a test laboratory can be a source of discomfort for the test engineer, the designer and management.  This is especially true in product development laboratories where the question of exactly what effect a design change had on system behavior is of central interest.  The use of Statistical Process Control (SPC) methods to gage and track the variability of system measurements can provide confidence in the repeatability of the system setup, and in the data it produces. 

However, the use of SPC in an EMC Lab, especially for frequency domain measurements, requires decisions to limit the quantity of the data to avoid information overload.  To accomplish this careful selection of the measurement methods is essential. 

In addition to the above topic, a brief presdnetation will be given on Life and Time Management - looking back on 75 years of life, and some suggestions on how to use time and planning to achieve the goals you select and work toward.

  Speakers

KIMBALL WILLIAMS KIMBALL WILLIAMS of IEEE EMC Society

Topic:

Statistical Process Control (SPC) for an EMC Laboratory + Life and Time Management

This will be a two part presentation, with the main one being the technical discussion of SPC in an EMC laboratory environment.  In addition, Kimball is the EMC Society Chapter Angel for the Cedar Rapids chapter and this will be an opportunity for chapter members to meet him and discuss their interests and career needs with an experienced industrry veteran.  Kimball's trip is being sponsored by the EMC Society Board of Directors, so any feedback and input that attendees provide can be used to improve programs and services of the EMC-S to you, the members.
