Summary/Biography
-----------------
It has been almost 1 1/2 years since the Santa Clara Valley Chapter of the IEEE
EMC Society hosted the students of San Francisco State University as they
present the results of their ongoing research projects in EMC and SI (Signal
Integrity).  Since then, the facilities and capabilities of the SFSU
Applied Electromagnetics Center of Excellence (AECE) have been
greatly expanded thanks to an NSF grant, equipment donations from
Lindgren, HP, SGI, and Sony, student research grants from
Lockheed-Martin, and help from the numerous EMC Society members. The
center  now has  a 750 GTEM cell, a shielded room, scalar and vector
network analyzers, a 12 GHz spectrum analyzer, EMI receivers, an HP VEE
based automated data aquisition
system, HP and Silicon Graphics workstations, and professional grade EM
modeling software including Ansoft FEM/HFSS, Cray Research LC FDTD, NEC MOM,
and Spice.

The EMC concepts have been integrated throughout the EE curriclum and the
expanded laboratory capability has given the students the opportunity to
continue the
high caliber of EMC and SI research in such diverse areas as time/frequency
domain analysis of printed circuit board crosstalk mechanisms, minimization of
signal integrity waveform distortions through proper transmission line source
and trace termination techniques, and radiated field coupling into shielded
enclosures with apertures.

Come join us for the last chapter meeting before the summer break, as Director
Pantic-Tanner gives us a photographic tour of the SFSU Applied Electromagnetics
Center of Excellence, followed by individual presentations of students in
the areas of research indicated above.

Dr. Zorica Pantic-Tanner is currently Director of the School of Engineering at
San Francisco State University where she oversees the work of 25 faculty and
staff members and about 600 students in civil, electrical, and mechanical
engineering.  She received her B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical
Engineering from the University of Nish in Yugoslavia in 1975, 1978, and 1982,
respectively. She became an Assistant Professor in 1978 and an Associate
Professor in 1982 in the Department of Electronic Engineering at the University
of Nish. In 1984 she was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship for postdoctoral
research in the area of Applied Electromagnetics. She worked in the
Electromagnetics & Communications Lab of the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign from 1984 until 1989, first as a Fulbright Postdoctoral Fellow
and then as a Visiting Scientist. In 1989 she joined the School of Engineering
at San Francisco State University as an Associate Professor and in 1996 was
promoted to Full Professor.

Dr. Pantic-Tanner's research and teaching interests are in the areas of
Electromagnetic Field Theory, Applied Electromagnetics and Electromagnetic
Compatibility. She has published over 50 conference and journal papers in these
areas.  In July of 1997, Dr. Pantic-Tanner received an NSF grant to improve the
EMC capabilities of the Center for Applied Electromagnetics which is used for
both instructional and research purposes.  Dr. Pantic-Tanner is an officer of
the Santa Clara Valley Chapter of the IEEE EMC Society, a member of the IEEE
International EMC Education Committee, and Vice-Chair of the IEEE International
EMC Numerical Modeling Committee.  She developed and taught several EMC
courses, for which she was awarded a Certificate of Achievement at the 1994
International EMC Symposium in Chicago.
