Introduction
The objective of this course is to provide learners with a good understanding of fundamental techniques in RF circuits for wireless communications. Analysis and design of a variety of active RF and microwave circuits, including amplifiers, oscillators and synthesizers will be discussed.
This course is part of:
- Graduate Certificate in Information and Telecommunication Engineering
- FlexiMasters in Information and Telecommunication Engineering
On completion of the course, the learners should be able to:
Amplifiers
Amplifier power gain equations. Stability. Constant gain and noise circles.
Narrowband reflective amplifier. Broadband amplifier. Balanced amplifier. Feedback amplifier. Power amplifiers.
Transferred electron devices. IMPATT devices. Negative resistance concept. Oscillator topologies. Voltage controlled oscillator. Dielectric resonator oscillator. Direct Synthesis. Digital look up synthesis. Phase locked loops. Oscillator phase noise.
For aspiring engineers and Information technologists who wish to improve their knowledge and skills in the broad area of communication engineering.
