Learning outcomes
|
The course is focused on the study of microwave circuits. First, students are introduced to the basic parameters of microwave circuits and the basic microwave transmission lines and structures. Another part of the course is devoted to the design of microwave couplers, power dividers, attenuators and phase shifters. The key part of the course is devoted to microwave filters, with emphasis on their theoretical description and construction. Another part of the course is devoted to active microwave circuits, oscillators and amplifiers. The last part of the course is focused on an introduction to the issue of the substrate integrated waveguide.
After completing this course, the student will be acquainted with the basic high-frequency transmission lines. He will be able to design standard passive microwave elements and will be acquainted with the design and parameters of active microwave circuits. Last but not least, the student will be competent to perform measurements of microwave elements and to properly display and evaluate the measured results.
