Antennas have become the essential component in any equipment required to propagate and capture information sent through electromagnetic waves. Due to the wide variety of applications, there are many types of antennas, all of which are based on the principles of electromagnetic radiators.

Participants in this course will learn the general properties of the radiation fields of given sources and design them as required in order to achieve a given radiation field pattern. Students will be able to identify the parameters and develop techniques to fulfill the requirements in order to achieve the optimal usage. The acquired knowledge will be applied by designing practical antennas.
