Objectives of Course
Students will
z be able to use complex number algebra and complex vectors
z be able to interchange time-domain and frequency-domain views of a problem
z understand the coupling between electric and magnetic fields through
Maxwell’s equations
z understand constitutive parameters and boundary conditions and be able to
analyze the relationships between fields and flux densities in material media
z be able to analyze electromagnetic waves in material media, and the reflection
and transmission of these waves between different media
z be able to interpret the energy and power associated with electromagnetic
fields
z be able to analyze and design basic transmission lines and waveguides
z be able to analyze and assess antennas and radiation from antennas
Course will employ MATLAB in lectures, homework, and labs
z to help you to visualize the complex math used in EM and to explore
applications more in depth
z to have in your “toolbox” a very versatile tool that can be used in other classes
and familiarity with an industry-standard math package
