Placering : 5-7 semester Timer pr. uge : 4
Længde : 1 semester Undervisningssprog : Engelsk

Målsætning : The student should be able to:
-optimize microwave amplifiers using S-parameters.
-understand basic phase locked loops.
-understand RF-oscillators.
-take non-linearity and noise into account when designing communication systems.
-understand the propagation of electromagnetic fields and know basic antenna theory.
Hovedindhold : S-parameters and Matching.
Stability.
Phase Locked Loops.
Oscillators.
Non-Linearity.Propagation of Radio waves.
Modulation and Communications systems.
Antennas.
Undervisningsform : 30% lectures/dialog and 70% practical design or communications planning.During the practical part of the course, the students will design and build parts of a high frequency communications system.The students must in this design consider subjects of communications planning, and use this to evaluate system performance.
Krævede forudsætninger : Knowledge of transmission lines, reflection coefficients, Smith Chart, S-parameters, electric and magnetic fields and noise. (Like High Frequency Electronics - BHSE and ENAME).Knowledge of modulation forms - analog and digital.
Anbefalede forudsætninger : -
Relationer : -
Prøveform : Mundtlig evaluering på grundlag af kursusopgaver
Censur : Intern
Bedømmelse : 13-skala
Bemærkninger : Evaluation:
The evaluation is based upon
- the curriculum
- the communications assignment and
- a presentation of the communications assignment.

A mark in the 13-scale is given. Students following the Danish line are allowed to hand in reports in Danish.

At the examination each student is allocated 15 minutes.
The examination is a group examination but the marking is individual.
The evaluation is based on a general impression of the level achieved by the student relative to the objective of the course. The evaluation is based on the report, the oral performance and the functionality of the project.

The group presents the project by giving well-prepared presentations.The duration of the presentation is approx. 10 minutes.The group is required to coordinate the presentations in such a way that the major aspects of the project are covered, that the presentations are different and that each individual presentation has a good technical span.After the presentation the supervisors and the external examiner pose questions inspired by the presentations and the report. The questions are a priori individual but may - if found relevant by the supervisors or the external examiner - form the basis of a broader group discussion.
During the evaluation by the supervisors and the external examiner, the project group leaves the room. Afterwards the group is summoned and the individual marks are explained.
If the student doesn"t pass the examination, the student is given guidance on how to improve the chances of passing.
