SUMMARY:Webinar: Rotating Machine Stator Winding Insulation Failure Processes
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, May 14\, 2020 at 1:00 p.m.\, Dr. Greg Stone will be presenting  “Rotating Machine Stator Winding Insulation Failure Processes”. \nDay & Time: Thursday\, May 14\, 2020\n1:00 p.m. ‐ 2:30 p.m. \nSpeaker: Dr. Greg Stone of Qualitrol \nOrganizers: IEEE DEI Ontario Chapter \nLocation: Virtual – Webinar \nContact: Ali Naderian\, DEIS Toronto Chapter \nAbstract: The electrical insulation used in motors and generators rated 3.3 kV and above is made from mica tapes bonded together with epoxy. The stator winding insulation is the one of the most common reasons for machine failure\, and the most common reason for motor and generator maintenance. The insulation normally fails due to gradual aging of the insulation by thermal\, mechanical\, and electrical stresses in combination with contamination. This lecture will discuss the main insulation aging and failure mechanism both of conventional 60 Hz machines\, as well as motors and wind turbine generators connected to voltage source PWM inverters. \nRegister: RSVP is required for this event. Please visit https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/229820 for more details and to register. \nBiography: Dr. Stone took his degrees from the University of Waterloo\, Canada in 1975 (BSEE) and in 1991 (PhD). He began his career as an engineer working at Ontario Hydro’s Research Division. In time\, he was responsible for the testing of the 1200 large motors and generators in Ontario Hydro’s system. Later Dr. Stone became one of the developers of on-line partial discharge test methods to evaluate the condition of the high voltage insulation in stator windings\, used on most large generators and many large motors in North America\, and now widely used around the world. Since 1990\, he has been employed at Iris Power LP in Toronto Canada\, a company he helped to form as a co-founder. \nDr. Stone has published over 150 technical papers and has been awarded three patents concerned with rotating machine maintenance and testing. He has published two books\, the latest\, Electrical Insulation for Rotating Machines – Design Evaluation\, Aging\, Testing and Repair. \nAn IEEE Fellow\, Dr. Stone has chaired several IEEE committees responsible for creating standards for evaluation and testing of rotating machines. He is past President of the IEEE Dielectrics and Electrical Insulation Society\, and continues to be active on many other IEEE committees. Other awards include the IEEE Forster Distinguished Service Award and the IEEE Third Millennium Medal. Dr. Stone is also a Fellow of the Engineering Institute of Canada. He is a registered professional engineer in Ontario.

SUMMARY:Automotive Radar – A Signal Processing Perspective on Current Technology and Future Systems
DESCRIPTION:Thursday March 5th\, 2020 at 4:00 p.m. Dr. Markus Gardill\, IEEE Distinguished Microwave Lecturer\, will be presenting an IEEE Distinguished Lecture “Automotive Radar – A Signal Processing Perspective on Current Technology and Future Systems”. \nDay & Time: Thursday March 5th\, 2020\n4:00 p.m. ‐ 5:00 p.m. \nSpeaker: Dr. Markus Gardill\nIEEE Distinguished Microwave Lecturer \nOrganizers: IEEE Toronto Electromagnetics & Radiation Chapter \nLocation: Bahen Centre\, Room BA 1180\nUniversity of Toronto – St. George Campus\n40 St George St\, Toronto\, ON M5S 2E4 \nContact: George V. Eleftheriades\, FRSC\, FIEEE \nAbstract: Radar systems are a key technology of modern vehicle safety & comfort systems. Without doubt it will only be the symbiosis of Radar\, Lidar and camera-based sensor systems which can enable advanced autonomous driving functions soon. Several next generation car models are such announced to have up to 10 radar sensors per vehicle\, allowing for the generation of a radar-based 360° surround view necessary for advanced driver assistance as well as semi-autonomous operation. Hence the demand from the automotive industry for high-precision\, multi-functional radar systems is higher than ever before\, and the increased requirements on functionality and sensor capabilities lead to research and development activities in the field of automotive radar systems in both industry and academic worlds. \nCurrent automotive radar technology is almost exclusively based on the principle of frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar\, which has been well known for several decades. However\, together with an increase of hardware capabilities such as higher carrier frequencies\, modulation bandwidths and ramp slopes\, as well as a scaling up of simultaneously utilized transmit and receive channels with independent modulation features\, new degrees of freedom have been added to traditional FMCW radar system design and signal processing. The anticipated presentation will accordingly introduce the topic with a review on the fundamentals of radar and FMCW radar. After introducing the system architecture of traditional and modern automotive FMCW radar sensors\, with e.g. insights into the concepts of distributed or centralized processing and sensor data fusion\, the presentation will dive into the details of fast-chirp FMCW processing – the modulation mode which is used by the vast majority of current automotive FMCW radar systems. Starting with the fundamentals of target range and velocity estimation based on the radar data matrix\, the spatial dimension available using modern single-input multiple-output (SIMO) and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar systems will be introduced and radar processing based on the radar data cube is discussed. Of interest is the topic of angular resolution – one of the key drawbacks which e.g. render Lidar systems superior to radar in some situations. Consequently\, traditional and modern methods for direction of arrival estimation in FMCW radar systems are presented\, starting from traditional monopulse-like algorithms to modern frameworks for superresolution DoA estimation. The presentation will then introduce the great challenge of FMCW radar system interference. While FMCW radar interference is a challenge which can be handled using adaptive signal processing in today’s systems\, it will become a severe problem with the increasing number of radar-sensors equipped vehicles in dense traffic situations in the near future and a solution to the expected increase in interference is still an open question. \nIt is this problem of interference\, together with some added functionality\, which motivated the proposal of alternative radar waveforms such as pseudo-random or orthogonal-frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) radar for automotive radar systems. Although not yet of great interest from an industrial perspective\, the fundamentals and capabilities of both technologies will be introduced in the remainder of the anticipated presentation. \nBiography:\nMarkus Gardill (S’11-M’15) was born in Bamberg\, Germany in 1985. \nHe received the Dipl.-Ing. and Dr.-Ing. degree in systems of information and multimedia technology/electrical engineering from the Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg\, Germany\, in 2010 and 2015\, respectively. \nIn 2010\, he joined the Institute for Electronics Engineering at the Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg as a research assistant and teaching fellow. \nFrom 2014 to 2015 he was head of the team Radio Communication Technology. \nIn late 2015 he joined the Robert Bosch GmbH as an R&D engineer for optical and imaging metrology systems and leading the cluster of non-destructive testing for the international production network.\nIn 2016 he joined the automotive radar business segment of InnoSenT GmbH\, where he is currently head of the group radar signal processing & tracking. \nHis main research interest include radar and communication systems\, antenna (array) design\, and signal processing algorithms. His particular interest is spatio-temporal processing such as e.g. beamforming and direction-of-arrival estimation with a focus on combining the worlds of signal processing and microwave/electromagnetics. \nDr. Gardill is an IEEE Young Professional. He is member of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (IEEE MTT-S) and currently serves as co-chair of the IEEE MTT-S Technical Committee Digital Signal Processing (MTT-9).\nHe regularly acts as reviewer and TPRC member for several journals and conferences\, will act as associate editor of the Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques beginning with 2020 and serves as Distinguished Microwave Lecturer (DML) for the DML term 2018-2020 with a presentation focussing automotive radar systems.

SUMMARY:Medical Applications of Microwaves
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, February 7\, 2020 Zoya Popovic\, Distinguished Professor and Lockheed Martin Endowed Chair of Electrical Engineering at the University of Colorado\, will be presenting “Medical Applications of Microwaves”. \nDay & Time: Friday\, February 7\, 2020\n3:00 p.m. ‐ 4:00 p.m. \nSpeakers: Zoya Popovic\nDistinguished Professor\nLockheed Martin Endowed Chair of Electrical Engineering\, University of Colorado \nOrganizers: IEEE Toronto Electromagnetics & Radiation Chapter \nLocation: Bahen Centre for Information Technology – Room 2135\n40 St George street\nToronto\, Ontario\nCanada M5S 2E4 \nRegister: https://meetings.vtools.ieee.org/m/219067 \nContact: Prof. Costas Sarris \nAbstract: This talk will first present a brief overview of the activities in the microwave group at the University of Colorado\, Boulder\, following a discussion on two topics that use microwave techniques for medical applications: (1) design of exciters and bore for human-sized 10.5-T MRI machines; and (2) a study of near-field radiometry for internal temperature measurements of the human body. The focus of the first topic is design of cavity and probes for improving uniformity of the circularly-polarized B-field inside phantoms for high-field travelling-wave MRI imagers. \nThe phenomenology of high-field imaging and its resulting challenges will be highlighted\, followed by simulation and experimental data using a research Siemens instrument. Although MRI can be used for measuring internal body temperature\, it is expensive\, large and slow. Radiometry is shown to be a feasible method for implementing a portable or even wearable microwave thermometer. \nOne of the possible frequencies of operation is the 1.4 GHz quiet band\, which is appropriate for centimeter penetration into tissues with minimized radio-frequency interference (RFI). The total blackbody power from a tissue stack is received by a probe placed on the skin\, designed to receive a high percentage of the total power from a buried tissue layer. Temperature retrieval for sub-surface tissue layers is performed using near-field weighting functions\, obtained by full-wave simulations with known tissue complex electrical parameters. \nMeasurements are presented using a calibrated Dicke radiometer at 1.4GHz for various phantom tissues. It is shown that temperature can be tracked within a fraction of a degree for a phantom muscle tissue layer under phantom fat and skin layers. \nBiography: Zoya Popovic is a Distinguished Professor and the Lockheed Martin Endowed Chair of Electrical Engineering at the University of Colorado. She obtained her Dipl.Ing. degree at the University of Belgrade\, Serbia\, and her Ph.D. at Caltech. In 2001/03 and 2014\, she was a Visiting Professor with the Technical University of Munich\, Germany and ISAE in Toulouse\, France\, respectively. She was a Chair of Excellence at Carlos III University in Madrid in 2018-19. She has graduated 60 PhDs and currently advises 14 doctoral students in various areas of microwave engineering. She is a Fellow of the IEEE and the recipient of two IEEE MTT Microwave Prizes for best journal papers\, the White House NSF Presidential Faculty Fellow award\, the URSI Issac Koga Gold Medal\, the ASEE/HP Terman Medal and the German Humboldt Research Award. She was named IEEE MTT Distinguished Educator in 2013 and the University of Colorado Distinguished Research Lecturer in 2015. She has a husband physicist and three daughters who can all solder.

SUMMARY:Software Security and White-box Cryptography
DESCRIPTION:Saturday November 30th\, 2019 at 2:30 p.m. Dr. Sk Md Mizanur Rahman\, professor in the department of Information and Communication Engineering Technology\, School of Engineering Technology and Applied Science\, Centennial College\, will be presenting “Software Security and White-box Cryptography”. \nDay & Time: Saturday November 30th\, 2019\n2:30 p.m. ‐ 3:30 p.m. \nSpeaker: Dr. Sk Md Mizanur Rahman\nProfessor\, Department of Information and Communication Engineering Technology\, School of Engineering Technology and Applied Science\, Centennial College \nOrganizers: IEEE Toronto Systems Chapter \nLocation: Centennial College\n941 Progress Avenue\nToronto\, Ontario\nCanada M1G 3T8\nRoom Number: PR A3-15 \nContact: Dr. Mehrdad Tirandazian \nAbstract: Traditionally\, cryptographic implementations are mainly designed to resist black-box attack without considering grey-box or white-box attacks. In a black-box attack model\, an adversary tries to deduce the cryptographic key by knowing the algorithm and analyzing only inputs and outputs without the execution being visible. It is assumed that the adversaries know what family of cryptographic algorithm they are targeting (e.g.\, AES\, DES\, RSA\, etc.)\, but all other details (e.g. execution time\, power consumption\, memory accesses) are unavailable to them. In fact\, a black-box attacker treats a cryptographic implementation as a mathematical function. On the other hand\, a white-box attacker is a much more powerful type of adversary and is able to analyze all parts of the implementation. Rather than just study inputs and outputs\, a white-box attacker can see everything that goes on inside the implementation. For example\, if the attackers are targeting cryptographic software running on\, say\, a PC or mobile phone\, then they can execute that software inside a debugger and examine memory and register values during the execution. In a grey-box attack scenario\, it is assumed that an attacker has limited knowledge of the security assets and methods (more that a black-box attacker) but does not have access to source code or detail design information. Therefore\, based on the severity of an attack\, the above attack models can be categorized as white-box > grey-box > black-box. In this presentation\, a brief discussion will be given on white-box implementations of the existing cryptographic algorithms. \nBiography:\nDr. Sk Md Mizanur Rahman is a fulltime professor in the department of Information and Communication Engineering Technology\, School of Engineering Technology and Applied Science\, Centennial College. Prior to his current appointment\, he worked as an Assistant Professor for five years in the Information Systems Department at the College of Computer and Information Sciences\, King Saud University. He also worked for several years in cryptography and security engineering in the high-tech industry in Ottawa\, Canada. In addition\, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher for several years at the University of Ottawa\, University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT)\, and University of Guelph\, Canada. He completed a Ph.D. in Engineering (Major: Cybersecurity Risk Engineering) in the Laboratory of Cryptography and Information Security\, Department of Risk Engineering\, University of Tsukuba\, Japan\, in 2007. The Information Processing Society Japan (IPSJ) awarded Dr. Rahman its Digital Courier Funai Young researcher Encouragement Award for his excellent contributions to IT security research. He is awarded a Gold Medal for distinction in his undergraduate and graduate programs. He has published approximately one-hundred peer reviewed journal and conference research articles. Also\, he has a granted industrial patent (US Patent) on cryptographic key generation and protection. Dr. Rahman’s primary research interests are cryptographic protocol design\, white-box cryptography\, software and network security\, reverse engineering and ethical hacking\, privacy enhancing technology\, sensor and mobile ad-hoc network security\, cloud and the Internet of Things (IoT) security\, machine learning in information security.
