Requirements
To pass the course you will need to implement and report a common microwave transmission line component. This alone gives you grade 1 or 2. Higher grades can be obtained by collecting points from optional tasks: homework and exam. To achieve the highest final grade (5), you need points from both optional tasks.
Completion parts must belong to the same implementation
Learning Outcomes
After passing the course, students know how to design, implement and characterize passive two-port and multi-port microwave transmission line components and how to summarize the relevant design details and performance data in a concise technical report.
