Course Overview

The Advanced Microwave Guided-Structures and Analysis online course is a 12 weeks online program offered by Swayam, an initiative by the Government of India’s Ministry of Education. The course starts with an introduction to the full characterisation of Scattering Matrix Parameters. Following that, Maxwell's Equations are addressed in both time-harmonic and instantaneous versions.

The Advanced Microwave Guided-Structures and Analysis training covers the wave function in a homogeneous medium and radiated fields from a current source in a continuous medium, in terms of electric and vector potentials/scalar magnetic.

Advanced Microwave Guided-Structures and Analysis syllabus covers the phenomena of transmission and wave reflection at dielectric and conducting surfaces and investigates oblique and normal incidences. The course covers a detailed analysis of the rectangular waveguide in terms of power flow, modes of propagation, and power dissipation.
