`Course Description

`
`(needs @ncsu.edu email
`
`This course prepares you to formulate and solve electromagnetic problems relevant to all fields of Electrical and
`Computer Engineering and that will find application in subsequent courses in RF circuits, photonics, microwaves,
`wireless networks, computers, bioengineering, and nanoelectronics. Primary topics include static electric and
`magnetic fields, Maxwell‘s equations and force laws, wave propagation, reflection and refiaction of plane waves,
`transient and steady—state behavior of waves on transmission lines.
`
`Evaluation and Grading Policy
`A weighted average grade will be calculated as follows:
`Final Exam = 25 %,
`Ir1—class Exams (x2) = 22 % (each),
`Homework = 10 %,
`Attendance/Participation = 4 %,
`
`Quizzes = 12 %,
`Oral Presentation = 5 %
`
`It is important to note that the Professor will not be curving grades in this course. The good news is that it is
`theoretically possible for everyone in the class to get an A (or an F). Your performance depends entirely on how
`3@ do, and not on how everyone else in the class does.
`It is therefore in your best interest to help your classmates
`in every legal way possible.
`Overall grade for the course will follow University guidelines:
`
`Score
`Grade
`Grade
`Grade
`
`
`87SX<90 77£X<8O =>c+ 67£X<70
`83:X<87 73£X<77 63SX<67
`=>A-
`80SX<83
`=>B—
`70SX<73
`=>C— 60<X<63
`
`
`
`There will be a gray area of several points below each of the numerical cutofi"s at left (except for A to A+). A
`student within this gray area may receive the higher grade (e. g. a B+ instead of a B) at the discretion of the
`Professor. This discretion may depend on several things: steady improvement in your test/homework grades over
`the semester, strong in-class participation, etc.

`ECE—3 03 ~ Course Syllabus
`
`Exam Policy
`
`There will be two (2) in—class Exams, in addition to the Final Exam (see Moodle or Universi Calendar for
`date/time). In~class reviews will be organized to provide examples of Exam problems with solutions, and
`Instructional Objectives will be posted one week prior.
`
`If an Exam is missed without a certified medical excuse or prior instructor approval, a zero will be averaged into
`your grade. Certified excuses and prior approval will be dealt with individually. A single makeup exam for Exam 1
`and/or 2 will be offered, held at a designated time at the end of the semester, and before the Final Exam. This
`makeup exam will include the contents assessed by both Exam 1 and 2, regardless of which of these two is being
`"made up". A makeup for the Final Exam will be arranged on a case—by—case basis.
`
`To request an excused absence, 1) write a formal hard copy letter to me (yes, real paper), dated and signed, stating
`your specific request and the reason you are asking for an excused absence; 2) provide documentation supporting
`your request; 3) bring this letter and the documentation to me in person before the requested date (if an absence is
`foreseeable) or within one day after the absence (if it is of unforeseeable nature), at which time we will discuss your
`request. Special cases will be dealt individually.
`
`Online Lecture Process and Policy (“flipped class”)
`Most lectures will be pre-recorded and distributed online, to be viewed before the scheduled class. The scheduled
`class time will include additional demonstrations, active learning activities, and open tutorial time.
`Normally, the active learning activity will involve a group or individual discussion and/or calculation that will be
`handed in by the end of class. This will be graded, and integrated into the participation score.
`
`Quiz Policy
`
`Each recorded lecture will be followed by one or more brief online quizzes, primarily for immediate feedback.
`
`The lowest three quiz scores will be dropped. Unexcused absences will result in a zero score for the missed quiz.
`
`Homework Policy
`
`The lowest grade in homework assignments will be dropped (therefore, one homework during the semester can be
`missed without loss of credit). No late homework will be accepted.
`
`Homework assignments will be posted on the course website, and are due at the end of class or TA office hours,
`whichever is later.
`
`Oral Presentations Policy
`
`All students will be asked to present a short (~5 min) oral presentation about a suitable electromagnetics topic of
`their choice. For example, one of the Technical Briefs in our textbook, or another device, effect, or idea
`This will be recorded in the Hunt Library presentation practice rooms. The grade for these presentations will be
`composed of a score from the instructors Q31 your student peers. Detailed guidelines will be provided mid-
`semester.
`
`Instructors’ Commitment
`
`We aim to provide you with the best course materials and to go out of our way to assist you in learning the
`material. You can expect your instructors to be courteous, respectfill, and punctual; to be well organized and
`prepared for lectures; to answer questions clearly and in a non—negative fashion; to be available during office hours
`or notify you beforehand if we are unable to kept them; to grade uniformly and consistently according to posted
`guidelines.
`
`For Students with Disabilities
`
`In order to take advantage of
`Reasonable accommodations will be made for students with verifiable disabilities.
`available accommodations, students must register with Disability Services for Students at the Student Health
`Center. For more information on NC State’s policies on working with students with disabilities, see this link.
`You instructor and TAS have been and will continue to be as flexible as possible.
`
`Academic Integrity
`
`University policy will be followed. Note that teamwork is strongly encouraged (as it is an important part of being a
`successfiil engineer), but plagiarisrn/cheating is not be tolerated at all. You are expected to fully understand and
`author any assignments even though you may work on them with your classmates on out—of-class assignments.

`
`you do not meet this standard, it is far better to discuss the situation with the professor than to dig yourself into a
`hole (i.e. cheating) that will have significant long—term consequences.
`
`Instructional Objectives
`
`We aim to produce students with a foundation and working knowledge of basic electromagnetic phenomena.
`order to do well in this course, students must demonstrate the ability to:
`1.
`Determine when a circuit must be analyzed with transmission line (TL) principles or when it can be
`considered as a lumped-element circuit.
`2. Explain the following concepts: transmission line, phase velocity, phase constant beta, attenuation constant
`alpha, complex propagation constant gamma, characteristic impedance, wave (input) impedance, voltage
`reflection coefiicient, traveling vs standing waves, and standing-wave-ratio.
`
`In
`
`3. Calculate the characteristic impedance, capacitance, inductance, resistance, and conductance of TLs (coaxial,
`two-wire, parallel—plate) when given their phase velocity and geometry, and visa Versa.
`
`4. Write the steady-state solution equations for voltage and current, which solve the general transient traveling-
`wave equations.
`
`5. Calculate the input impedance, reflection coeflicient, and standing~waVe-ratio of a TL terminated by an
`arbitrary load, including open/short—circuit, resistive, and reactive loads.
`
`6. Match a TL operating in sinusoidal steady state mode to arbitrary load impedance, using quarter-wave-
`matching and impedance~matching with lumped elements principles.
`7. Calculate power consumed in transmission line circuits.
`
`8. Sketch the Voltage and current phasor amplitude along a TL terminated by an arbitrary load.
`9.
`Convert a wave solution equation fiom phasor—domain to time-domain notation.
`

`Explain the concepts of permittivity, penneability, electric field (E-field), electric flux density field (D—
`field), magnetic flux density field (B-field), magnetic field (H—field), divergence operator, and curl
`operator ~ with equations where appropriate.
`Determine the electric field (Coulomb’s Law) and potential from discrete charges.
`
`12. Apply Gauss's Law (integral and differential forms) relating electric flux density and charge.
`13. Apply Kirchhoff s Voltage Law (integral form) relating voltage potential and electric field.
`l4.

`15.
`Employ electrostatic boundary conditions to find E— and D— fields across dielectric and metallic
`interfaces.
`

`between two current-carrying circuits.
`
`17. Apply Biot—SaVart Law to find the H—field from steadystate currents.
`
`18. Apply Ampere’s Circuital Law (integral and differential forms) relating the magnetic flux density and

`linkage, ideal transformer, magnetic dipole, plane wave, spherical wave, intrinsic impedance, refraction,
`critical angle — with equations where appropriate.
`Discuss Maxwell's equations and recognize the difi°erence between electrodynamics and statics.
`
`Determine electromagnetic plane wave parameters, including propagation direction, wavenumber (ie,
`propagation constant), absorption coefiicient, frequency, wavelength, polarization state (ie, linear,
`circular, elliptical) — from both phasor- and time-domain representations.
`Calculate, for a plane wave normally incident on a dielectric boundary, the reflection ooefficient,
`transmission coefiicient, total E— and H—field wave equations on both sides of boundary, absorption loss,
`skin depth, and power density.
`
`24. Apply Snell’s Laws to find the refracted and reflected angles at a dielectric boundary, as well as when
`total-internal-reflection occurs.
`
`25.
`
`Explain, in the context of an oral presentation, how an electromagnetic device or system works, and
`evaluate peers doing the same.
