After successful completion of the course students will be able to solve a typical RF problem. Depending on the problem, this includes literature study, RF circuit design and RF measurement. Students will gain lots of hands-on experience and will learn how to used RF design tools and RF measurement equipment.
Students can choose from a list of individual topics/problems which need to be solved on an individual basis. A strong focus will be put onto hands-on topics, requiring the student to assemble an RF PCB and/or perform measurements in the lab. Depending on the chosen topic, microwave simulators (2.5D or 3D full wave EM-simulators) will be used as well.
Examples for topics are (the current list of topics will be presented during the kick off meeting):
Please note: Students can bring in their own topics as well - the supervisor will check if it fits the lecture.
The work will mainly be done self contained. Of course, the supervisors are available for questions and support). At the end of the term you present your results to other course attendees by a 15min presentation and hand-in a report to your supervisor.
Students will perform a task, typically an RF circuit design or RF measurement problem. This will done individually in the lab.
Kick off meeting: October 10th, 2019; 02.00 p.m.Location: Seminar room E354, Room No. CF 0115 (together with kick off meeting of "Advanced RF Techniques")
There is no fixed schedule as work will be done on individual basis.
The grading is based on a report handed in after finishing the siminar and the oral presentation of the results.
Not necessary
Successful completion of "RF Techniques" (course and lab) or equivalent knowledge is required.If "RF Techniques" has not been completed, your equivalent knowledge will be checked by a short examination before the beginning of the course. The main topics addressed are:
