Maxwell's equations Transmission lines, impedance, matching, reflections, standing waves Numerical methods Electrical circuits, basic computation methods Transients of electrical circuits containing R,L,C Alternating currents Fourier transform Transient characteristics Frequency and transient characteristics Frequency and transient characteristics of two-ports Two-ports characteristic description using matrices and feedback Electric filters Electric filters

Learning activities and teaching methods
Monologic (reading, lecture, briefing)
Learning outcomes
The course provides to students with Maxwell's equations. Transmission lines, impedance, matching, reflections, standing waves, electrical circuits, basic computation methods.
Student will be able to explain away basic notions of the electrostatics, magnetic field, current field, electromagnetism and EMC including signal propagation on the long lines. Student will be able to solve electrical circuits.
Prerequisites
The routine utilization of high-school calculations, complex numbers, and basic knowledge of physics, differentiation and integration are supposed.

Assessment methods and criteria
Written examination

Students should demonstrate understating of solved problems.
