Title Electromagnetic Theory

Pre-requisite KEEE 1123

Student Learning Time (SLT) 120 hours

Credit 3

Learning Outcomes Apply Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction and Maxwell
equations that predicts the existence of electromagnetic
waves.
Describe the behaviour the plane wave and the laws governing
the reflection and refraction of plane waves.
Analyse the behaviour of transmission lines and explain wave
behaviour along uniform guiding structure and important pa-
rameters such as the resonant frequencies of the device.
Analyse radiation fields and properties of an elemental electric
dipole.

Synopsis Starting with fundamental postulates of electromagnetism, Faradays
law is introduced, leading to the discussion on Maxwells equations.
The study of uniform plane wave includes the propagation of time
harmonic plane wave in an unbounded homogeneous medium, the
concept of pointig vector and the incidence of plane wave. Oevrview

of the transmission lines will be explained. The general transmission
–line equations can be derived from a circuit model, and the study of
time harmonic steady-state properties of transmission line is facilitat-
ed by the use of graphical chart. Waveguides and basic antennas
will be explained.
