Course guarantor: prof. Ing. Zbyněk Škvor, CSc.

This course presents fundamentals of electromagnetic field theory and its applications. Analysis methods proper for static, stationary as well as dynamic fields and waves in free space and on basic transmission lines are presented as well. This course provides students with physics – based wiev on studied effects, which is applied then on engineering problems. At the end of the course, all effects should not only be described, but quantified as well. Basic knowledge and insight into communication devices, systems and techniques is provided, applicable not only to systems currently taught in other courses, but to future systems as well.

Fiber Optic Technology (BE2M17VOT)

Course guarantor: prof. Ing. Stanislav Zvánovec, Ph.D.

The aim of the course is to introduce mechanisms of propagation of optical waves in optical fibers and fiber components. Furthermore, the optical measuring techniques and measuring methods for the characterization of optical fibers will be presented. Lectures include both the design and methodology of measuring transmission parameters for optical communication systems such as numerical aperture, attenuation, dispersion, and measurement of basic characteristics of active and passive elements of optical communication systems – connectors, splices, couplers, refractive indices etc.

Introduction to Electromagnetic Compatibility (BEAM17EMC)

Course guarantor: Ing. Tomáš Kořínek, Ph.D.

The course deals on problems of electromagnetic compatibility. Students obtain the basic knowledges in the field of electromagnetic compatibility – electromagnetic interference, susceptibility and testing methods. The course leads to gain professional skills in the field of electrical engineering.

Microwave Circuits (BE2M17MIOA)

Course guarantor: doc. Ing. Milan Polívka, Ph.D.

Subject is focused on the design of planar passive and active microwave circuits.

Microwave Measurements (BE2M17MIMA)

Course guarantor: doc. Ing. Přemysl Hudec, CSc.

Fast development of wireless radio data communications (both mobile and stationary) also results in requirements for measurement of numerous related electrical parameters in frequency band ranging from hundreds of MHz to tens of GHz. The “Microwave measurements” subject brings description of all important measurement instruments and measurement methods used in this field. Instructions devoted to measurement devices also cover detailed inner structures, principles of operation, common measurement setups and optimum setting. Even relatively complex measurement instruments and setups are discussed, for example those used for measurement of noise and non-linear parameters. Exercises are focused on practical measurements commonly performed in the wireless communication field. Besides modern measurement instruments, students also learn a number of typical RF and microwave components, circuits, subsystems and digitally modulated signals.

Optical Communication Systems (BE2B17OKS)

Course guarantor: prof. Ing. Stanislav Zvánovec, Ph.D.

The aim of the course is to introduce students with principles of optical systems. The course covers both theoretical background of optics and practical approaches for the design of optical systems. Students extend their knowledge from the ray optics through the matrix optics, subsequently and further by the description of optical systems using Gaussian beams, towards wave and quantum optics. Then students will learn the basic mechanisms and principles of fiber optics.

Optical Measurement (BE2M17OPM)

Course guarantor: prof. Ing. Stanislav Zvánovec, Ph.D.

The main aim of this course is to introduce students to optical measurement techniques starting from the detection of microparticles, irregularities, and surface damage, through the use of fiber optics in areas where usage of standard electronic sensors is not possible as in places with increased risk of explosion and hospitals, moving onto lidars for use in intelligent transport infrastructures and finishing with macroscopic sensing (remote sensing) of the Earth, atmosphere, and space. These measurement techniques require, in particular, a deep understanding of the physical mechanisms on which they are based, as well as knowledge of measurement procedures and specifics in data processing and data reconstruction.

Wave Propagation for Wireless Links (BE2M17SBS)

Course guarantor: prof. Ing. Pavel Pechač, Ph.D.

The aim of the course is to study the wireless transmission channel in real environments focusing on wave propagation for planning of terrestrial and satellite wireless links. The syllabus includes both deeper theoretical foundations of radio wave propagation in the atmosphere as well as ITU-R design procedures for terrestrial and satellite, fixed and mobile communications in various frequency bands.

Matlab (BE0B17MTB)

Course guarantor: doc. Ing. Miloslav Čapek, Ph.D.

Students will learn how to efficiently use both basic and advanced Matlab functions, including graphic user interface design. Emphasis will be put on problem analysis and implementation, understanding Matlab documentation, debugging user-defined functions and independent work with Matlab (proved by work on the project). Knowledge acquired can be applied to a broad spectra of courses taught at FEE (processing labs, final projects) and can be used in future professional career.
