ELT-47446 Antennas, 8 cr
Lisätiedot
Courses ELT-41746 Antenna Basics, ELT-47446 Antennas, and ELT-47466 Antenna Project are intended to support each other.
For students who want to further increase their knowledge about design and construction of antennas, it is recommended to take also ELT-47466 Antenna Project.
Note that Antenna Basics is given during the first three weeks of the 3rd period, Antennas starts at the middle of the 3rd period (i.e. after the Antenna Basics).
Suitable for postgraduate studies.
