Description
The principles of the wave propagation on transmission lines and the main characteristics are introduced in the framework of this course. Different transmission lines such as coaxial cables, or low-profile transmission lines (microstrip lines, coplanar waveguide) will be studied and circuits such as matching networks and filters will be discussed. The design and characterization of two-ports passive RF circuits will be explored in theory and in practical labs.
Content:
S parameters, ABCD, Y & Z matrices. Smith chart, matching networks. Signal-flow diagram. Classical low-profile transmission lines. Filters.
Recommended prerequisite
Basics of electronics and electromagnetism
