Derived from	20810339 ADVANCED ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPONENTS AND CIRCUITS in Communication and information technology engineering LM-27 TOSCANO ALESSANDRO (syllabus) The course is organized in 5 units as follows: PART 1 – EM PROPAGATION AND MATCHING CIRCUITS EM modeling of guiding structures, Real matching circuits for guiding structures, Narrowband and Wideband matching networks, Wideband binomial and Chebyshev impedance transformers. PART 2 – MICROWAVE NETWORKS: MODELS AND PROPERTIES Matrix representations of microwave networks (Matrix ABCD, Impedance and admittance matrices, Scattering matrix and relationships to each other), Scattering matrix [S] of a N-port network, Properties of a component: Reciprocity, Matching and Lossless, Signal flow representation of the scattering matrix, Analysis of a complex microwave network and design of matching networks. PART 3 – THREE-PORT COMPONENTS Analysis of a three-port network, Analysis and design of a Circulator, Analysis and design of Power Dividers (Junction dividers, Lossy dividers, Wilkinson dividers) in balanced and unbalanced configuration). PART 4 – FOUR-PORT COMPONENTS Analysis of a four-port network, Properties of Directional Couplers (DC), Analysis of symmetric and antisymmetric directional couplers, Analysis of hybrid directional couplers, Design of directional couplers. PART 5 – DESIGN OF MICROWAVE NETWORKS AND ADVANCED COMPONENTS Introduction to the design of microwave and millimeter-wave networks (filters and small signal microwave amplifier). Introduction to the use of electromagnetic and microwave circuit CAD software. Introduction to microwave and millimeter-wave components based on metamaterials for radar, satellite and wireless communication application.
