Learning Objectives

Develop the skills of using mathematical and electromagnetic tools to solve electromagnetic theory problems, writing the Maxwell’s equations with proper explanations. Analyze basic wave propagation problems as well as polarization information of an electromagnetic wave. Analyze the wave propagation theory in pure dielectric, impure dielectric as well as in conductors.

Learning Outcomes

Students will be able to understand the concept of Maxwell’s equations and the applications. Analyze basic wave propagation problems as well as polarization information of an electromagnetic wave. Understand the essentials of transmission lines and its applications. Understand the working of a rectangular and circular waveguide and simulate the properties in OpenEMS software tool as well as in MATLAB.
