1. Department, number and title of course: Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences: EE 117 – Electromagnetic Fields and Waves 2. Catalog Description: (4 units) Three hours of lecture and one hour of discussion per week. Formerly 117A-117B. Review of static electric and magnetic fields and applications; Maxwell's equations; transmission lines; propagation and reflection of plane waves; introduction to guided waves, microwave networks, and radiation and antennas. Minilabs on statics, transmission lines, and waves. The course begins with simple applications of static electric and magnetic fields to symmetric transmission line structures such as the coaxial cable. A gradual understanding of TEM modes is developed as wave phenomena and Maxwell's equations are introduced. Following this introduction transmission line theory and applications are considered both for pulsed and continuous wave applications. The Smith chart is introduced and the more general nature and wideapplicability of bilinear transformations is emphasized. A more detailed discussion of Maxwell's equation and application are then considered; the divergence and Stoke's theorems, the Lorentz force equation and applications considered. The scalar and vector potential are introduced and the static electric and magnetic dipoles introduced as a prelude to antenna concepts. Propagation and reflection of plane waves at boundaries emphasizing the transmission line analogs is then treated. Evanescent waves and their importance in optical and other devices is discussed. Guided wave concepts, microwave networks, and radiation and antennas as well as various antenna arrays are introduced. Minilabs on statics, transmission lines, antennas, Faradays Law, and basic optics are carried out by student groups.3.
