Advanced Microwave Guided-Structures and Analysis

Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur and NPTEL via Swayam

This course may be unavailable.

Overview

The course begins with an exposition to a complete characterization of Scattering Matrix Parameters.Thereafter, Maxwell’s Equations in both instantaneous and time-harmonic forms are covered. The treatment is extended to analyze the Power Conservation for both instantaneous and time-harmonic fields. Next, the wave equation in a homogeneous medium and radiated fields from a current source in a homogenous medium is analyzed in terms of vector and scalar magnetic / electric potentials. The phenomenon of reflection and transmission of waves at conducting and dielectric interfaces for normal and oblique incidences is studied. A thorough characterization of the rectangular waveguide follows in terms of modes of propagation, power flow, power dissipation, followed by the treatment of the rectangular resonator. A discussion of the reciprocity concept leads to the evaluation of modes excited by a current source in a waveguide. A treatment of related guided structures including hybrid guides follows. The cylindrical wave function is introduced which is used to analyze propagation characteristics in circular guides and the circular cavity.INTENDED AUDIENCE :Teachers from Colleges / Institutions / Universities / Research Scholars /Undergraduate and Post-Graduate Students / Industry ProfessionalsINDUSTRY SUPPORT : ISRO, DRDO, BEL, SAMEER, Astra Microwave, Qualcomm, Intel, Ansys, Wipro, Keysight Technology, Agilent, Anritsu, WiPL-D, Altair Engineering, Mistral Solutions Pvt.
