Telecommunications I

Introduction lecture course in RF telecommunications. Electromagnetic wave propagation in free space, antennas, line of sight transmission (directive gain, beam width, polarization, impedance), RF components (amplifiers, mixers, up converters), receivers, and transmitters. Laboratory assignments and demonstrations include antenna gain and field strength. Telecommunications, transmission line, smith chart, radio-wave communications, radio, wave propagation, free space electromagnetic wave propagation, microwave systems, atmospheric conditions, antennas, gain, directivity, radiation patterns, sidelobes, polarization, half-wave dipole, dipole antenna, horn antenna, parabolic and reflector antennas, microstrip antenna, patch antenna, microwave devices, linear devices, amplifiers, filters, non-linear devices, mixers, LO, local oscillators, detectors, PLL, phase lock loop, and specification sheets. System design considerations in RF receiver design, overall system gain, S/N, signal to noise ratio, noise figure, image frequencies, link budget analysis, transmitter design, maximum power considerations, modulation, matching networks, and antenna matching techniques.
