Essential Steps for Signal Integrity
The speed of today’s logic devices creates PCB design challenges. If not designed correctly, you may be plagued with costly and time-consuming changes. Want the knowledge to
design and layout a high-speed PCB correctly the first time? This course helps you recognize problems with any proposed high-speed design, provides you with design rules and
design processes to ensure the PCB functions properly at the prototype stage, and emphasizes how to create a cost-competitive design without sacrificing high-speed integrity. Not
an introductory course, our expert presents material at a technical level geared toward experienced designers.

Aerospace & Mechanical
Engineering
Robust Control: Toolbox, Theory, and
Applications
Explore the background and basics of Robust
Control Toolbox, including robust control modeling,
robust control analysis, and robust control synthesis. Learn why this theory and its related tools are
the ultimate control analysis and synthesis methodology to capture the issues of system uncertainty, stability, performance, and the essential
trade-offs between them. Review numerous reallife aerospace design examples, such as spacecraft attitude control, supermaneuverable fighter
flight control, large space structure vibration control, and disk drive suspension servo control.
Course includes hands-on experience.
Coordinator and Lecturer:
Richard Y. Chiang, PhD, Boeing, Technical
Fellow, Flight and Control Engineering
Department, Space and Intelligence Systems,
Boeing, El Segundo, California
Dates: Apr 6-8 (Mon-Wed)
Reg #:255578
Course No: 878.12
Units: 1.8 CEU (18 hours of instruction)
Fee: Through March 6: $2,905
After: $3,195
Kalman Filtering: Theory and Applications
The Kalman filter is probably the most successful
and widely-used part of “modern control theory”
and a central piece of the algorithm for many
applications. Learn to design Kalman filters for
various fields; analyze the performance; develop
the system, hardware, and software architecture;
and resolve problems encountered in system integration, validation, and verification. Course
includes basic theory, hands-on experience
through computer lab sessions using MATLAB,
and case studies that illustrate Kalman Theory in
applications, including GPS navigation, integrated
inertial navigation, precision navigation using GPS
carrier-phase, spacecraft stellar-inertial attitude
determination, precision clock, and radar/laser
target tracking.

Fundamentals of Cryogenics
Software-Defined Radio
Modern Microwave Antenna Measurements
Understand the fundamentals of cryogenics with
overviews of cryogenic material and cryogens,
heat transfer, and thermodynamics at low temperatures. Explore cryogenics applications in cryopreservation, medical fields, transportation, energy
related fields, aerospace/military and material processes. Topics include: gas separation and liquefaction; solid state and fluid type cryocoolers;
instrumentation and the design of cryogenic
equipment plus superfluidity and superconductivity. The course also covers cryogenic safety and
how it can prevent expensive design/material failures, physical injury and even death.
Learn the architectures of legacy radio systems
and the new architectures based on
DSP capabilities as well as the flexibility afforded
the software-defined radio (SDR) by multirate
signal processing techniques. Real-time
MATLAB simulations illustrate essential concepts for a number of SDR systems. The course
uses GNU radio, a low-cost way to start working with SDRs, to demonstrate many of the
important SDR concepts. The Ettus Research
Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP)
product family serves as the platform to illustrate
the flexibility of the software-hardware interface.
Join global industry peers, thought leaders, and
researchers innovating microwave antenna measurement methodologies, designs, and applications for a 4-day intensive course. Topics include
the design, use, and evaluation of all capabilities
used for antenna measurements, including outdoor ranges, compact ranges, anechoic chambers, and all near-field scanning methods in
current use. Includes a tour of the UCLA
Antenna Range.

Engineering
DSP for Communication Systems
Learn how to implement engineering functions in a
cost-effective way by using computational means
instead of analog hardware. This course emphasizes communication systems where traditional
applications, such as modulation/demodulation,
channelization, channel equalization, synchronization, and frequency synthesis, are now being
implemented with new digital signal processing
techniques to achieve high performance. Analyze
these techniques, including multirate filters, I-Q
sampling, sigma-delta modulators, and conversion
between I-Q and real signals. Focus on real-world
systems using modern DSP methods. Concepts
illustrated with MATLAB demonstrations.

Avionics Data Buses
Learn the buses that are fundamental to the
function of both military and commercial aircraft.
This course provides a broad overview of data
bus technology with emphasis on the major
buses—MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC 429—found
in most modern military and civil aircraft and
which, despite their age, continue to be used in
newer aircraft as well. Topics include basic bus
structure and control, word description, redundancy, and fault tolerance. Internationally recognized experts, who have guided the evolution of
these buses from their very beginning, lead
these discussions.

Essential Steps for Signal Integrity
The speed of today’s logic devices creates PCB design challenges. If not designed correctly, you may be plagued with costly and time-consuming changes. Want the knowledge to
design and layout a high-speed PCB correctly the first time? This course helps you recognize problems with any proposed high-speed design, provides you with design rules and
design processes to ensure the PCB functions properly at the prototype stage, and emphasizes how to create a cost-competitive design without sacrificing high-speed integrity. Not
an introductory course, our expert presents material at a technical level geared toward experienced designers.
