Course Objectives:
The goal of this course is to introduce students to the concepts and principles of the advanced microwave
engineering, including the use of computer aided design(CAD) methods. RF/microwave CAD is employed
extensively in industry and a knowledge of the principles and methods used is important for anyone who may
work in an RF/microwave related field. Theory and design of passive and active microwave components, and
microwave circuits including: microstrip line, guided wave device, filter, amplifier, oscillators, and
experimental characterization of above components using the network analyzer, spectrum analyzer, power and
noise meters. In this course, the theoretical and practical concept of microwave engineering is useful
applications to the analysis and design of microwave components, microwave circuits, and optics.
The general flow of this class is Application --> System --> Component; individual components are analyzed by Fields --> Modes -->
Equivalent Network.
Course Description:
- Discusses the electrical property of material, and microwave application.
- Analysis and design of planar transmission lines, matching circuits, passive and active microwave
components, and microwave circuit, etc.
Relationship to Other Courses and Prerequisite:
The theoretical concepts of this course is useful to the understanding of microwave circuits and optics
classes. And this class becomes directly useful in understanding the behavior of the field and we can
make intelligent guesses as to how to improve the behavior of the RF/Microwave structures we are
designing and analyzing. Prefer Prerequisite: ICE509 Electromagnetics, or equivalent knowledge, but not
necessary requirement.
Computer Usage:
Computer aides design tools, such as ADS, are used to design, analyze and construct RF and Microwave
Circuits. Matlab
