A modern course in microwave engineering

A two-semester course in microwave engineering at the senior/first-year-graduate level has been developed over the last seven years at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA. This course has a laboratory, and is modern in the sense that it includes contemporary topics (such as planar transmission lines, components, and circuits), the use of computer-aided design techniques, and access to state-of-the-art microwave laboratory test equipment. The course emphasizes fundamental principles and concepts, but also contains a large amount of design-oriented material with current ABET requirements in mind. The lecture material for this course has been refined to the point where a textbook is in the final stages of preparation.<
