Microwave Amplifiers

An introduction to the design of amplifiers in the RF microwave frequency range of 0.5GHz to 10GHz. Impedance matching, modeling, dynamic range, unilateral design, bilateral design, stability, low noise design, and broadband design techniques. Students will use fundamental microwave and RF techniques, mathematical and computer based calculation, and charting tools to perform impedance matching, Smith Chart plotting, and simulations. Further studies in digital communication systems are covered in the follow on course, Telecommunications II.
