Course Overview:

Field equations: definitions of field vectors: E, B, D and H. Lorentz force relation;

electrical and magnetic polarizations and constitutive parameters; electric and magnetic

currents and conductivity parameters; boundary conditions at the interface between two

media and across surface currents; poynting theorem in real and complex forms and

energy relations; complex permittivity and permeability

Electromagnetic principles and theorems: Uniqueness theorem, reciprocity theory,

image theory, equivalence principles, induction theorem, physical optics

Plane wave in homogeneous media: reduction to vector Helmholtz equation; separation

of variables; uniform and nonuniform plane waves; wave impedance; reflection and

refraction at oblique incidence; fields of infinite current sheets; polarization properties of

waves, scattering by cylinders and spheres

Fields in waveguides: dispersion; phase, group and energy velocities; attenuation;

resonant cavity; inhomogeneously filled waveguides; waveguide excitations

Antennas: dipoles; radiation patterns; approximate analysis of some antennas

Pre-requisite:

Introductory knowledge of electromagnetic fields and waves at the level of ECE 450 and ECE452.
