AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The course provides knowledge and skills concerning advanced electromagnetic systems, with reference to both their working principles and their use in different applicative fields.

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

The course provides advanced electromagnetic skills, which concern the characterization of microwave systems, the electromagnetic propagation in the presence of complex structures, and numerical methods for solving electromagnetic problems. These concepts are also discussed with reference to some applicative examples, such as radio frequency systems for the detection, positioning, and navigation support in the industrial, civil, and biomedical sectors. The aim is to allow students to understand how to deal with the electromagnetic aspects involved in the study and design of complex systems and structures.

TEACHING METHODS

Lectures.

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

Review and insights on electromagnetic field theory. Electromagnetic scattering and propagation in complex environments, inverse problems, imaging systems and their applications. Radiofrequency systems for detection, positioning, and navigation support. Applications of electromagnetic systems in the industrial, civil, and biomedical fields (e.g., heating, curing, sensing, etc.). Numerical methods for solving electromagnetic problems. Introduction to novel electromagnetic systems and concepts (e.g., terahertz technology, metamaterials, etc.).
