High-Frequency Circuit Design

Course Description

EET 402 provides students with fundamental concepts in high frequency (RF and microwave) circuit design used in the development of front-end electronics in telecommunication systems. Students will gain familiarity with high frequency circuit design topics including (but not limited to) limitations of lumped elements at high frequencies, parasitic effects, transmission line and distributed circuits, various types of transmission lines including (but not limited to) coaxial and planar transmission lines, Smith Chart, impedance matching, resonators and filters, scattering parameters, multiport networks, power divider and combiners, directional couplers, and RF and microwave circuit modeling through computer aided design (CAD). The laboratory portion of the course provides students with the opportunity to learn about the operation of high frequency test equipment, such as network analyzers and spectrum analyzers, and to build and evaluate high-frequency and transmission-line-based circuits.
