Satellite Workshop
Developing Standards in Magnetics: IEEE Magnetics Society and IEEE Standards Association Workshop
Theme 1: Standardizing Sensors
Date: Thursday, 9 July 2026
Time: 15:30–19:30
Location: Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands
Magnetic sensing and actuation technologies are rapidly advancing across automotive, industrial, biomedical, MEMS, and emerging quantum applications. However, progress toward large-scale deployment and certification is often hindered by inconsistent measurement protocols, limited reference materials, and fragmented reporting standards. MSSROAD2030 aims to bridge the EMSA research community with metrology institutes, industry leaders, and standardization bodies to:
- Identify urgent gaps in measurement, interfaces, materials, and system integration
- Define concrete standardization priorities
- Establish a working roadmap toward ISO, CEN, and EURAMET initiatives
Presentation Highlights
Invited contributions will address:
- Traceability and uncertainty in magnetic measurements
- Instrumentation and calibration challenges in industrial environments
- Materials characterization and reference structures
- Interfaces and low-noise electronics for magnetic sensing systems
- Translating laboratory methods into formal standards
Format
The 3-hour session includes:
(i) 4 invited expert presentations
(ii) Panel discussion on identifying priority standardization gaps
(iii) Parallel breakout sessions to draft problem statements and roadmap elements
(iv) Final plenary consolidation of top priorities and next steps
A networking reception follows the session. Participation is included in the EMSA2026 registration fee.
Expected Outcomes
- Prioritized list of standardization targets
- Draft problem statements suitable for ISO/EURAMET submission
- Outline of a coordinated inter-laboratory comparison
- Initial Working-Group roadmap (2026–2030)
Support
This workshop is sponsored by the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE SA) and organized by the IEEE Magnetic Society Standards Committee – Technical Subcommittee on Sensors, Communications, Instrumentation, and Measurement.
About IEEE Standards Association (IEEE SA)
The IEEE Standards Association develops global consensus standards that drive innovation, interoperability, and trust across technologies. Within the IEEE Magnetics community, the Standards Committee supports initiatives related to measurement protocols, materials characterization, sensor interfaces, and system-level validation.
