Focus
Electromagnetic wave propagation continues to be a vital component in diverse areas such as telecommunication scenarios in the satellite, terrestrial and mobile domains, microwave remote sensing, navigation and location and more recently in mobile networks. The seminar will initially provide grounding in the concepts and analytical tools of electromagnetic wave propagation that are required in these areas. In particular, the bridge between the theory and real life applications will be emphasized by considering examples drawn from current applications like mobile networks, GPS and wireless links currently of importance in the general area of communications and sensor technology. In this regard, the course will duly emphasize the methodology of channel modelling with special reference to issues of reliability, information degradation and channel capacity. Likewise, the modalities contained in the assessment of vehicular networks, indoors and outdoors propagation, multipart interference, shadowing and troposphere propagation will be taken into account.
The overall philosophy of the seminar is to provide scientific knowledge and skills that are crucial in understanding and developing the end applications affected by electromagnetic wave propagation.
