Antennas and Propagation
Antennas and Propagation is one of the compulsory courses taken by students of the Bachelor of Telecommunication Engineering program. Want to know more? Read this article.
As we know, information signals can be transmitted from one place to another through several media, both physical media in the form of cables/wires (wired) and non-physical media (not cables/wires), better known as wireless, such as free air.
For several technical and, above all, economic reasons, for long-distance wave transmission it is more efficient to use free air as the transmission medium. This is possible because radio waves, or RF (radio frequency), are radiated by an antenna, which serves as a matching device between the transmitter system and free air, in the form of electromagnetic wave radiation. These waves propagate through the air from the transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna, which can be several kilometers, or even hundreds to thousands of kilometers, apart.
This course aims to study the fundamentals of antenna design principles and electromagnetic propagation principles, as well as the concept of radio transmission link design. The material covers background, basic theory and concepts, development of method/algorithm variants, performance evaluation, and applications. The outcomes this course aims to achieve include:
- Students understand the concepts and scientific principles in the fields of electromagnetics, antennas, radio propagation, radio frequency engineering, and radar.
- Students are able to formulate engineering problems in the fields of electromagnetics, antennas, radio propagation, radio frequency engineering, and radar.
- Students are able to critically understand the substance of international-level scientific papers and apply it in research and development in the fields of electromagnetics, antennas, radio propagation, radio frequency engineering, and radar.
