Slide 2 of 13
Notes:
With the widespread use of fast personal computing there is now no reason for engineers to use approximate rules in the design of broadband microwave systems.
Several very good Mathematical CAD packages are available which cope with complexity of modern microwave system analysis but require considerable experience in their use and a good understanding of mathematical modelling processes.
This course exploits Java applets as a very convenient graphical method for not only calculating accurate design parameters, but also serving as a valuable interactive learning aid. They permit the limits of a design to be ascertained without the need to delve deeply into the supporting mathematics and cope extremely well handling many variables in real time.
The topics and applets have been selected to cover technical requirements likely to be met in the microwave radar and EW system design fields.
