ELECTROMAGNETIC THEORY AND TRANSMISSION LINES
Prerequisite : Nil

Course Objectives:
This is a structured foundation course, dealing with concepts, formulations and applications of
Electromagnetic Theory and Transmission Lines, and is the basic primer for all electronic
communication engineering subjects. The main objectives of the course are …
 To learn the Basic Laws, Concepts and proofs related to Electrostatic Fields and
Magnetostatic Fields, and apply them to solve physics and engineering problems.
 To distinguish between static and time-varying fields, and understand the significance
and utility of Maxwell’s Equations and Boundary Conditions, and gain ability to provide
solutions to communication engineering problems.
 To analyze the characteristics of Uniform Plane Waves (UPW), determine their
propagation parameters and estimate the same for dielectric and dissipative media.
 To conceptually understand the UPW Polarization features and Poynting Theorem, and
apply them for practical problems.
 To determine the basic Transmission Line Equations and telephone line parameters and
estimate the distortions present.
 To understand the concepts of RF Lines and their characteristics, Smith Chart and its
applications, acquire knowledge to configure circuit elements, QWTs and HWTs, and
to apply the same for practical problems.
Course Outcomes : Having gone through this foundation course, the students would be able
to …
 Distinguish between the static and time-varying fields, establish the corresponding sets of
Maxwell’s Equations and Boundary Conditions, and use them for solving engineering
problems.
