This course equips students with fundamental knowledge in Electromagnetic Theory, crucial for applications in communications. It covers vector analysis, electrostatics, magnetostatics, and electrodynamics, providing a comprehensive understanding of electromagnetic phenomena. The content is drawn from three primary textbooks:
- Engineering Electromagnetics by William H. Hayt (McGraw-Hill Education)
- Elements of Electromagnetics by Matthew N. O. Sadiku (Oxford University Press)
- Electromagnetic Field Theory and Transmission Lines by G. S. N. Raju (Pearson Education)
Course Outcomes
By the end of the course, students will be able to:
- Apply vector analysis techniques to solve electromagnetic problems.
- Understand and analyze static electric fields, including potential, capacitance, and energy.
- Analyze steady magnetic fields, currents, and magnetic forces.
- Describe time-varying electromagnetic fields, Maxwell’s equations, and wave propagation.
- Apply electromagnetic principles to practical scenarios in communications, such as antennas and wave interactions.
