Description
The fields covered by this module are vast, as they include both microwave bases such as adaptation or S parameters, as well as concrete applications up to the study of Electromagnetic Compatibility.
The themes are addressed in class and systematically illustrated by practical work.
Objectives
Master the basics typical of the microwave field, such as the phenomenon of reflection and the need for circuit adaptation. Master the S-parameter matrix as a characterization tool. Master the basics of wireless transmission system architecture. Be aware of electromagnetic compatibility issues.
Skills
- Know how to calculate a microstrip and stub fitting system.
- Know how to read the datasheet of passive and active components such as couplers or amplifiers.
- Know how to calculate a bond balance.
- Know how to calibrate and use a network analyzer.
- Characterize the basic elements of a wireless transmission system
- Link knowledge of system architecture, fitting problems and data sheet reading to minimize EMC problems.
