Description
Meets with ECE 5350. This course will include topics relevant to antenna design and current research in metamaterials. Students will complete projects based on these topics. Metamaterial topics may include: material parameter extraction, effective medium theory, resonant unit cell analysis, and unit cell coupling. Examples will be drawn from invisibility cloaking and negative index media. Antenna topics may include: complex antenna shapes, real array effects, co-located antenna interference, high-impedance ground-planes, and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). Graduate students will have one additional project.
