With the widespread use of cell phones autonomous vehicles, and the coming of the Internet of Things, there is an increasing need to understand wireless communications and radar sensors. A key component of these systems is the antenna. The purpose of this course is to help the student develop knowledge in the area of antennas. This involves understanding the parameters that are used to characterize antennas and how these effect system performance. An important aspect of the course is to provide the student with an understanding of the operating principles behind the most commonly used antennas. This is followed with exposure to basic design principles. These can be used to perform antenna design or can be used as starting points for design using an electromagnetic simulator. As part of the course, students will be exposed to simulator use through homework assignments, and possibly, course project work. prereq: EE 3601 or equivalent
