Students will be familiar with principles of operation, modeling and design of passive components and circuits used at frequencies above 1 GHz. Training students to analyze the microwave networks by using the scattering parameters through solving practical problems. Training students for computer design of microwave circuits using specialized software packages for 2D, 2.5D circuits and 3D circuits.
Capability to understand principles of operation, potentials and limitations of components and circuits used in the state of the art and next generation of wireless systems (5G). Fundamental theoretical and practical engineering knowledge about of computer design of the modern microwave passive components and circuits. Understanding the basic concepts and steps in the design of microwave resonators, filters, antennas, power dividers, couplers, and attenuators. Students will be trained for design of microwave circuits by using modern CAD software packages through the following phases: creating model, performing numerical simulations, creating a layout, verification of laboratory prototype by measurement.
