Module description
A fundamental knowledge of electromagnetics is critical when pursuing a career in electronic engineering, providing you with understanding of how signals travel in conductors and in space for applications in communications and antenna systems and foundation for designing such systems. Beginning with the physical exploration of electromagnetics, you will study the origins of electric and magnetic ?elds, looking at the historical impact and application of electromagnetism. Furthermore, you will investigate electrostatics and the electric ?eld as well as magnetic forces and magnetostatics, applying this knowledge to real world engineering problems; exploring theories, such as Maxwell's equations, you will develop essential problem-solving tools. Meanwhile, studying communication systems, you will consider elements such as the transmission of mobile phone signals and how radio works, incorporating Hertz's ?rst measurement of radio waves. Assignments will cover practical exercises and open-ended problems to design your microwave waveguides or antenna systems with numerical models.
