RF Wireless Systems Stream

With the ever increasing need to transmit, transfer, and process larger pieces of data, many electrical systems are forced to operate at higher frequencies. As this happens, there is a need for engineers who understand the issues involved with the design of systems at these frequencies. Radio frequency and microwave system engineers have the ability to carry out these designs in the 300 MHz – 300 GHz range, which must take into account the electromagnetic characteristics of the system. This stream is designed to provide students with a strong foundation in this area, which includes the application of electromagnetic waves with an emphasis on how systems behave.
