ENEE381

Prerequisite: Minimum grade of C- in ENEE380; and permission of ENGR-Electrical & Computer Engineering department. Restriction: Must be in Engineering: Electrical program. The electromagnetic spectrum: Review of Maxwell's equations; the wave equation potentials, Poynting's theorem, relationship between circuit theory and fields; propagation of electromagnetic waves in homogeneous media and at interfaces; transmission line theory, waveguides, radiation and antennas. Permission Required. Prerequisite: ENEE 381. The goals of this course are to survey the field of microwave engineering, investigate the current applications of microwave systems, and understand the basic operating principles of the most common sources and components. This is an updated version of an earlier course on the same subject (ENEE482, last offered in Spring 2008).
