ECE 5321 - Microwave Eng II

Institution:

University of Utah

Subject:

Electrical and Computer Engineering

Description:

Microwave Engineering II supports circuit and system design for high-frequency circuits. We will cover: 1) Nonlinear and active microwave devices including diodes, mixers, transistors, and negative differential resistance devices; 2) compressed Smith Chart; 3) balanced and double-balanced mixer design; 4) transistor amplifier theory and design for best gain, stability, and noise performance. The course will also go through 5) Oscillator theory and design using transistors, tunnel diodes, IMPATTs, and Gunn diodes; 6) PIN diode switching circuits and phase shifters; 7) Survey of design and performance of microwave systems and auxiliary components: antennas, signal modulation and multiplexing, transceiver and radar systems, signal-to-noise ratios, atmospheric effects, microwave heating, biological effects, and safety. Prerequisites: "C-" or better in ECE 5320 AND Full Major status in (Electrical Engineering OR Computer Engineering).
