2019S, PR, 2.0h, 2.0EC, to be held in blocked form

Properties

  • Semester hours: 2.0
  • Credits: 2.0
  • Type: PR Project

Aim of course

Practical experience in the area of

- Electromagnetic propagation for centimeter and millimeter waves on waveguides, and in free space, as well as in the presence of interacting objects (scattering, diffraction, Fresnel zones) 

- Antenna types for these wavelengths

- System design: link budget

 

Subject of course

These practical aspects broaden the content of Chapters 10, 11, 12 and 13 of the course VU Wave Propagation.
