The unit aims to provide advanced electromagnetic skills, which concern electromagnetic radiation and devices, propagation in complex environments, and basic electromagnetic compatibility concepts. These didactic contents are discussed both from a theoretical point of view and with reference to applicative examples.
The unit aims to provide skills on electromagnetic radiation and related devices, propagation in the presence of complex structures and basic principles of electromagnetic compatibility. These topics are discussed both from a theoretical point of view and with reference to applicative examples.
The aim of the unit is to provide knowledge on several advanced electromagnetic topics, which are relevant in electronic engineering. In particular, students will acquire knowledge and skills related to the electromagnetic radiation, electromagnetic devices, propagation in the presence of complex structures, and electromagnetic compatibility. These didactic contents will be also discussed with reference to different applicative examples. At the end of the course, students will be able to understand electromagnetic aspects involved in the study and design of complex systems and structures, and will be able to apply these skills in different applicative areas in the electronic engineering field.
Basic knowledge of electromagnetic fields.
The course includes lectures in the classroom, in which both the theoretical concepts related to advanced electromagnetic technologies and the applicative aspects related to their use in different contexts will be addressed, also through exercises.
Recalls and insights on basic electromagnetic theory. Electromagnetic radiation and radiating devices. Electromagnetic propagation in presence of structures and in "complex" environments (e.g., dielectric slabs and multilayer structures, electromagnetic scattering). Electromagnetic compatibility.
This course contributes to the achievement of the following Sustainable Development Goals of the UN 2030 Agenda: Objectives no. 8 and 9.
Lecture notes provided by the teacher.will be made available.
The following reference books are also suggested:

The exam is oral and may cover the entire unit program.
The oral discussion will be aimed at evaluating the skills acquired by the students on the advanced electromagnetic techniques discussed during the lectures. The evaluation of the exam will be based on the quality of the presentation, the reasoning ability and the level of knowledge acquired by the students.
Students who have valid certification of physical or learning disabilities on file with the University and who wish to discuss possible accommodations or other circumstances regarding lectures, coursework and exams, should speak both with the instructor and with Prof. Federico Scarpa (federico.scarpa@unige.it), the disability liaison for the Engineering study programs.
