Last listed
1966–67

No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1966–67 to 1966–67 (before that, 1963–64 used the number for Electromagnetic Fields I); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

Representation of transmission line by the four line parameters. Derivation of the differential equations. Sinusoidal analysis; characteristic impedance, propagation constant, phase velocity. Terminated lines; reflection coefficient, standing wave ratio, impedance matching. Use of the Smith Chart. Telephone and power lines. Introduction to waveguides; TM and TE modes in rectangular guides, guide wavelength cutoff frequency, attenuation. The transmission line-waveguide analogy. 3 lectures, alternate 3 hours laboratory, one term.

As printed in the 1966–67 calendar, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
