The students will be able to learn the design of microwave coupler and dividers, filters and their implementation,
microwave amplifiers, active microwave devices, oscillators and mixers. A slight introduction of network analysis
is covered. It also highlights the distortions caused by the noise in microwave circuits. Microwave systems are
also discussed.
