Wireless Technologies
Future wireless communication systems will operate at high frequencies and will make use of highly integrated active phased-array antenna technology. This requires experts that combine expertise in Microwave Engineering and Antennas, and Integrated-Circuit Design. Combining these two areas of expertise in the field of wireless communication, they jointly provide a sound basis for life long learners with a background in Electrical Engineering. Though each course can also be followed individually.
Microwave Engineering & Antennas
This first microcredential course, in a series of two, teaches you in-depth know-how of microwave engineering and antennas. It combines both passive and active microwave circuits as well as antenna systems. Future applications, like millimeter-wave 5G/beyond-5G wireless communications or automotive radar, require experts that can co-design highly integrated antenna systems that include both antennas and microwave electronics. This course will provide you with the required theoretical foundation as well as hands-on experience using state-of-the-art design tools.
This course is offered in a hybrid setting; classes will be online and on campus. The lectures are available online to watch in your own time and at your own pace. Regular attendance on campus is required for certain practical classes and/or experiments, and also for your exam. During these classes you will join and mingle with the current master students. A schedule will be presented to you before the start of the course.
After succesfully finishing this course, you will receive a digital certificate, called "Microcredential". Read more about microcredentials here.
