Course Overview

Wave equation, propagation, polarization, reflection, transmission, radiation, and scattering will be studied. Topics include: variable formed wave eq., transverse electromagnetic modes (in Lossy media), linear/circular polarization, different incidence issues in Lossy media with multiple interfaces, electromagnetic theorems and principles, etc.

Learning Achievement

The lecture covers advanced topics on
- The wave equation and its solution in rectangular, cylindrical, and spherical coordinates
- Electromagnetic wave propagation and polarization
- Reflection and transmission at normal and oblique incidences are considered, along with depolarization of the wave due to reflection and transmission
- Introduction to metamaterials (especially those with a negative index of refraction, referred to as double negative, DNG).
- The auxiliary vector potentials and their use toward the construction of solutions for radiation and scattering problems are discussed.
- The theorems of duality, uniqueness, image, reciprocity, reaction, volume and surface equivalences, induction, and physical and physical optics equivalents are introduced and applied.

Grading Philosophy

Grading will be carried out in the following three phases, and students fulfilling the criteria below will pass.
(1) Regarding the items cited in relation to course objectives, simple problems based on
text examples will be given as practice exercises and homework. Submit the above
and achieve 70% (out of 100%) for every item.
(2) Solve general problems in the examination and achieve 60% (out of 100%). Note that grades from A+ to C are to be determined based on final examination scores.
(3) Grading ratio - Exam (65%), Homework (35%)
