Purpose and objective Goals
|
Students study the foundation of electromagnetic waves, antennas, waveguides, and some applications of electromagnetic waves. [Educational Objectives] (C) Acquire technical knowledge required for engineers in the electrical, electronics and information engineering field (C-2) Acquire advanced technical knowledge required for engineers in any of three fields: electric energy system and control engineering, electronic devices and photonics engineering, and information, telecommunication and control systems. [Goals] - Derive wave equations from Maxwell’s equations. - Understand the propagation of electromagnetic waves in transmission lines. - Understand foundational properties of antennas. - Study applications of electromagnetic waves.

Evaluation method and Assessment points
|
The final grade is determined by the sum of the results of a midterm examination (50%) and a final examination (50%).
|
Prerequisite / other notes
|
It is desirable for students in this class to have already taken “Advanced Course in Electromagnetics.” It is impossible to understand them and retain an understanding simply by attending lectures. Therefore, preparations for and reviews of the classes are essential.
