Intended learning outcomes

The course aims at giving students the knowledge and readiness to calculate, analyze, and design electronic components and circuits in the radio frequency (RF) and microwave areas. After the course, the student will be able to do the following:

• Design electronics when high frequency aspects, e.g., transmission line effects are considered.
• Analyze RF and microwave components and circuits.
• Design RF and microwave components and circuits using advanced design tools.
• Perform RF-measurements using Oscilloscope.
