Goals
This course provides in depth coverage of all aspects electromagnetics, with a focus on field and wave generation and propagation. The course will focus on the more practical aspects of E-M theory, with application examples. The specific subjects covered will be Maxwell’s equations, electromagnetic wave propagation, transmission lines, waveguides and antennas.
Students completing this course should be able to :
- understand Maxwell’s equations and solve them for specific regular geometries
*understand general electromagnetic wave propagation - work out simplified solutions to waveguides example problems in regular geometries.
- understand antennas theory and both electrical and radiation characteristics
Content 1-Introduction
Applications of electromagnetic fields and waves in industry and research.
2- Maxwell model
Maxwell’s equations in integral and differential forms, Time-harmonic electromagnetic fields, Poynting vector, boundary conditions
3- Guided waves
Guided waves in metal waveguides, TE and TM modes, dispersion characteristics and cut-off frequencies.
4- Antenna and Radiation
*Retarded potentials, wave equations for vector and scalar potentials, near and far fields
*Antenna radiation characteristics : antenna gain, directivity, radiation pattern, radiation resistance.
*Elementary antennas Hertzian dipoles, linear wire antennas, short-dipole, half-wave dipole, wave dipole, wire loop antennas
