Objectives of the Course
|
Numerous passive microwave devices and antenna types that can be used as parts of a high frequency system are investigated both theoretically and practically. For example, waveguides and their supported modes are investigated. Also, parameters of a high frequency system and its parts including passive devices and antennas are defined and they are examined again both theoretically and practically. This course aims to help the students to understand and develop their design skill about a high frequency system together with its parts including passive microwave devices and antennas.
Particularly, the main goals of the course are as follows:
o Developing a theoretical background on high frequency systems and components including passive microwave devices and antennas.
o Providing basic skills about parameters and testing principles of high-frequency systems and the components.
o Providing experience for various types of high-frequency system components design and applications.
