Introduction to RF Electronics

Catalog description

Introduction to RF Electronics covers the fundamental principles behind radio-frequency (RF) design and analysis. Topics will include distributed parameter analysis, single- and multi-port networks, filter design, matching and bias networks, active devices, and amplifier design. The course also covers numerical modeling/analysis of RF sub-systems using appropriate software and laboratory-based measurements. Designing, building, and testing an RF sub-system (of receiver) is part of the course.
