2021 ASIA PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY

Dear Colleagues, 

I hope all of you are doing well. 

On behalf of the LoC, colleagues, and many (young) researchers I would like to thank you for your support in finding the best solution for APEMC 2021, in terms of continuity, financially, perspective for young researchers etc. And to limit overlap with other activities in the world:

APEMC 2021 will be run as a hybrid conference from 27 to 30 September 2021.

I am looking forward to meeting all of you. Stay safe, stay healthy.

Sincerely,

Dwi Mandaris – LoC Chair

UPDATED INFORMATION:

Join The Conference Virtually

To take part and join in APEMC 2021 virtually, you are required to register first. Please register via a link that we have sent to your email (email that registered in edas) and follow the guidelines there. For more information or if you experience any problems please contact [email protected]

How The Conference Will be Organized

The Indonesian Government has extended the emergency public activity restrictions regulation for Java and Bali island till 20 September 2021 and it will be evaluated weekly, as a result, foreign participants who don’t have visas for highly important reasons (such as healthcare) will be unable to enter Indonesia. Thus, APEMC 2021 will be run as a hybrid conference: online and in-person.   According to this, here are our recommendations:

• 1. We strongly advise all foreign participants to participate in the APEMC BALI 2021 virtually
• 2. Local participants can still come to the venue and participate in-person

Pre-recorded presentation videos submitted by online presenters will be played during their respective schedules and there will be a live Q&A at the end of each session. Whereas in-person presenters will deliver a live presentation onsite. We will be using ZOOM as a video conference tool to connect participants from the both methods.

Detailed technical program schedule for workshops, tutorials, and oral presentations can be seen here

APEMC2021 Symposium: 25-28 May 2021 27-30 September 2021

*One-page abstract submission (not be included in IEEE Xplore)

Communication reliability between systems is imperative for the development of the ever-advancing technological revolution. The new age will undoubtedly be more complex. Signal integrity, as well as noise susceptibility reduction, is expected to be vital for its performance. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) will prove paramount to the successful adoption of new systems, as it has in many years past.
 
The Asia-Pacific International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (APEMC) was founded in May 2008. After the great success of EMC Zurich held in Singapore in 2006, board discussion commenced and as a result, APEMC was established. APEMC aims to share advances in all aspects of research conducted into EMC and respond to the latest requirements by networking with the international EMC community. We invite all engaged in the latest research and development of the various fields of EMC to participate in the APEMC 2021 symposium. IEEE EMC Society is a technical sponsor of APEMC 2021.
 
APEMC2021 will be held from the 25th to 28th May 2021 27-30 September 2021 in Bali, Indonesia. Indonesia has demonstrated rapid development in many aspects in recent years which have proven its capabilities to survive world economic crisis especially in the wake of the 4th industrial revolution. The APEMC2021 symposium will be an event like none other showcasing cutting edge research. Bali is nestled amongst the idyllic paradises in Indonesia with a unique culture and various amazing natural tourist attractions. With the blend of the latest technological developments and rich Indonesian culture, as well as the romantic atmosphere and inherent relaxing natural landscapes, unique and exciting experiences await you.
