ECE 540 - Electromagnetics

3 credits
3 hours lecture
Prerequisites: ECE 336 or permission of instructor
Advanced electromagnetics concepts with in-depth studies of electromagnetic waves, radiation, and scattering. Time-varying electromagnetic fields, electrical properties of matter and electromagnetic theorems are presented. Wave equations are discussed, along with wave propagation, polarization, reflection, and transmission. Multi conductor transmission lines, waveguides, cavity resonators, and radiation and antenna principles are studied. Geometrical optics, diffraction theory, and physical optics are introduced. Topics in scattering include scattering by planar surfaces, cylinders, wedges, and spheres.
