Ee117 Electromagnetics Ii Ee Ucr EE117 Electromagnetics II UC Riverside Course EE117 Electromagnetics II builds upon the fundamental concepts of electromagnetic theory introduced in EE116 delving deeper into advanced topics and their applications in various engineering fields This course explores the behavior of electromagnetic waves their interaction with materials and the design and analysis of electromagnetic devices Course Objectives Upon successful completion of EE117 students will be able to Understand and apply Maxwells equations in various electromagnetic scenarios Analyze the propagation of electromagnetic waves in different media including transmission lines and waveguides Solve problems involving electromagnetic wave reflection and transmission at interfaces Design and analyze antennas for various applications Understand the principles of electromagnetic interference EMI and compatibility EMC Apply electromagnetic theory to solve practical engineering problems in fields like communication radar and biomedical engineering Course EE117 is structured around a series of lectures recitations and homework assignments culminating in a final examination Lectures Approximately 2 hours of lectures per week cover the theoretical concepts derivations and practical applications of electromagnetics Recitations An additional hour of recitation per week is dedicated to problemsolving application examples and clarification of concepts Homework Assignments Regular homework assignments reinforce the theoretical understanding and provide handson experience in solving problems related to various topics Midterm Exam An inclass midterm examination assesses students understanding of the first half of the course material Final Exam A comprehensive final examination covers the entire course syllabus and serves as the final evaluation tool 2 Course Content Module 1 Electromagnetic Wave Propagation Maxwells Equations in TimeVarying Fields Review of Maxwells
