Overview

Electromagnetic theory describes the interaction between electric and magnetic fields, how charges and currents create light and radio waves, and how these waves propagate through a medium. The behavior of electric and magnetic fields is unified under Maxwell's equations. EM theory provides the basis for understanding antenna transmission, transmission lines, microwave devices, electric machines, and space science. This concise course equips the reader with the foundations and key principles of electromagnetism. With some background knowledge in vector analysis and partial differential equations, you can master the subject in under 2 hours.Course HighlightsElectromagnetic (EM) field theoryProperties of medium and polarization vectorPhysics of electricity and magnetismConservative and solenoidal fieldsElectrostatic and magnetostatic energiesEquipotentialsElectrodynamics and Faraday's LawDifferent forms of Maxwell's equationsPoynting's theoremUniform plane waveTransverse EM (TEM) waveWave impedanceGeneral form of wave equationsSkin depthPolarization of uniform plane waveWave guiding surfaces and structuresUniform guiding structure wave analysisField equations for rectangular waveguideDominant mode of waveguideField patterns of TE and TM modesAbout the InstructorThe instructor was a technical editor for the IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine for 10 years and has also guest edited for the IEEE Communications Magazine (2 issues) and the IEEE Journal on Selected Areas on Communications.
