Keynote Speaker Announced for GlobalEM 2024 Symposium on High-Power Electromagnetics
Reminder: Paper Submittal Deadline is Friday, March 8
CEDAR
PARK, Texas, February 27, 2024 – The SUMMA Foundation and ETS-Lindgren, co-hosts
of the in-person GlobalEM 2024 Symposium, announced Professor Gun-Sik Park with
Seoul National University and Seoul Teracom, Co., as the Keynote Speaker. This presentation promises to be a highlight
of the Symposium Technical Program which takes place July 14 to 19, 2024, in
downtown Austin, Texas, at the AT&T Conference Center. Professor Park will present “Advances in
High-Power Microwave Technologies.” His
presentation will provide an overview of recent advancements in high-power
microwave (HPM) technology, with a focus on key innovative approaches to
increasing power density and efficiency.
Insights into the current state and future prospects of HPM technology
will also be discussed. “One of the
reasons we invited Professor Park to present at the GlobalEM 2024 Symposium is
his expertise in not only high-power electromagnetics, but HPM technology as
well,” said Edl Schamiloglu, Distinguished Professor with The University of New
Mexico and President of the SUMMA Foundation.
“His ability to convey complex topics in a relatable manner, in addition
to his popularity among our worldwide high-power electromagnetic community, is
a benefit for Symposium attendees. Plus,
he is very approachable and friendly; I expect many sidebar conversations with
Prof. Park following his presentation and during the Symposium week. We are very fortunate that he will travel
from his home base in Seoul, South Korea, to join us in Austin, Texas,” he
added. You can read more about Professor
Park here.
Industry
expert William (Bill) A. Radasky, President and Managing Engineer of Metatech
Corporation and Technical Program Committee (TPC) Chair, and Nicolas Mora,
Ph.D., Research and Extension Directorate Advisor of the National University of
Colombia and TPC Vice Chair, are poised to organize yet another outstanding technical
program for which GlobalEM is well known. The technical program will follow past
editions of the GlobalEM Symposium in featuring several plenary presentations
of general interest to Symposium attendees, in addition to the Keynote Speaker
presentation noted above. Regular
submitted papers in the 17 topical areas of High-Power Electromagnetics (HPEM)
will return as an integral part of this year’s technical program. Those interested in contributing to the
technical program can view the many technical areas related to HPEM and paper submission details here. Note the submittal deadline for one-page
extended abstract papers is Friday, March 8.
Following the technical program that
begins with the highly anticipated Keynote Speaker presentation on Monday, July
15, the Symposium technical program concludes on Friday, July 19, with a Technical Tour of
ETS-Lindgren’s world headquarters in Cedar Park, Texas, just north of
Austin. “After hearing numerous
presentations related to HPEM, Symposium attendees will end the week by seeing
real-world examples of products designed and manufactured for protection
against HPEM, High-Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP), and Intentional
Electromagnetic Interference (IEMI),” said ETS-Lindgren’s Subject Matter Expert
and Global Marketing Director Joel Kellogg, Vice Chair of the GlobalEM 2024
Organizing Committee. “The tour
complements the technical program by relating the topics presented to solutions
that support the topics. Many people are
not aware there is a wide range of solutions available that are manufactured in
the United States and certified by an independent test lab (Little Mountain
Test Facility operated by Boeing at Hill Air Force Base in Ogden, Utah). We look forward to ending the GlobalEM 2024
Symposium week with an educational tour, an ‘all-you-can-eat’ Texas-style lunch
buffet, and a horseshoe toss competition.
I hope you can join us!” enthused Mr. Kellogg.
