Course Description
This course introduces theoretical and practical concepts for antennas and arrays. Students will learn antenna fundamentals and basic parameters, the relationships between radiation and vector potentials, and apply key electromagnetic theorems such as image theory and equivalence principle. The theory and design of linear antennas, aperture antennas, microstrip antennas are discussed. Radiation pattern control via phased arrays, reflectarrays, and periodic structures are studied. Students will learn CAD tools for electromagnetic design. This course assumes familiarity with Maxwell's equations, electromagnetic waves, electromagnetic theorems, and transmission line theory.
