Analysis and Design Principles of Microwave Antennas

Electronics & Communication Engineering

Instructor Name: Amitabha Bhattacharya


Institute: IIT Kharagpur
Department: Electronics & Communication Engineering

Course Intro: : The course Analysis and Design principles of Microwave Antennas covers a broad spectrum of the
antenna design and analysis, starting with the basic concepts of microwave radiation to numerical computation of
antenna currents, Impulse Radiating Antennas (IRAs), antenna pattern synthesis, etc. This course will not only help the
undergraduate and graduate students by providing fundamental concepts of antenna theory but also help the design
engineer to get familiar with different state of the art techniques of antenna analysis and design. In a nutshell, this course
would lay the foundation for further exploring the vast area of microwave antenna analysis and design.

Pre Requisites: : Basic Knowledge of Electromagnetic Theory, Transmission line, Electronic network theory is
required. Following are the NPTEL courses done earlier covering the above concepts (a) Electromagnetic Theory (b)
Basic Tools in Microwave engineering (c) Basic Building Blocks of Microwave Engineering
Core/Elective: : Core
UG/PG: : UG
Industry Support : Radar Industry, Space Industry, Avionics industry, Defense Industry, Internal security Industry,
Mining industry, Geo-exploration Industry.
