Course Description:
Electromagnetic waves; Maxwell's equations; Poynting theorem and wave equations;
propagation of EM waves; transmission lines; microstrip lines; waveguides; cavities and
antennas; microwave generators, microwave amplifiers; measurement at microwave frequencies.
Scope and objective of the course:
Electromagnetics is one of the most fundamental topics in Electrical Engineering. Maxwell’s
four simple equations form the basis for almost all phenomena in Electrical and Communication
Engineering. A thorough understanding of many areas such as VLSI, PCBs operating at GHz
clocks, rotating machines, microwaves and antennas depends upon electromagnetics. The
emphasis will be placed on both physical concepts and mathematical equations. An effort will be
made to show that electromagnetic is not a dull and dry area with lot of mathematics but
something beyond it. The objective of this course is to provide the students with the basic
understanding of electromagnetic fields and microwaves. The material covered in this course is
basic to the training of electrical engineers.
