Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Implement an engineering approach dealing with a set problem taking into account technical, economic and environmental constraints
    • Identify and describe the problem to be solved and the functional need (of prospective clients) to be met considering the state of technology
    • Design, evaluate and optimise solutions addressing the problem
    • Implement a chosen solution in the form of a drawing, a schema, a plan, a model, a prototype, software and/or digital model
    • Identify and acquire the information and skills needed to solve the problem
  • Understand the theoretical and methodological fundamentals in science and engineering to solve problems involving these disciplines
    • Identify, describe and explain basic scientific and mathematical principles
    • Understand laboratory techniques: testing, measuring, monitoring protocol, and security
    • Select and rigorously apply knowledge, tools and methods in sciences and engineering to solve problems involving these disciplines

Learning Outcomes of UE

Understand how Maxwell equations under their most general form imply the existence of electromagnetic waves and understand their main properties. Understand the theory of transmission lines and its implications in telecommunications and electronics. Understand how to emit and receive waves in practice. Understand how waves interact with various transmission mediums.

UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance

Electrodynamics. Transmission lines. Varying states. Emitting and receiving waves. Antennas. Electromagnetic waves properties. Dielectric and conductive mediums. Reflection, transmission and diffraction of waves. Guided propagation.
