Language of Teaching / Examination:English
Duration:1 semester
Frequency of Offer: Every winter semester
Credits: 6
Learning Outcome:After successfully completing the module, students will be acquainted with the fundamental theory of antenna radiation, the main differences between hertzian and magnetic dipole radiators as well as with the radiation characteristics of different configurations of dipole, monopole and loop antennas. The students will also be familiar with the theory of linear and planar antenna arrays as well as with methods for antenna synthesis. Furthermore, they will know techniques for measuring the S-parameters of antennas.
