For course code, course name, number of credits for a course and other scheme related information, do visit full semester subjects post given below.
For Electronics & Communication Engineering 5th Sem scheme and its subjects, do visit Electronics & Communication Engineering (EC) 5th Sem 2021 regulation scheme. For Professional Elective-II scheme and its subjects refer to Electronics & Communication Engineering (EC) Professional Elective-II syllabus scheme. The detailed syllabus of microwave engineering lab is as follows.
Course Objectives:
- To familiarize with working of microwave devices
- To study the working of microwave generators and antennas
- To give an outline on antenna designing software
Course Outcomes:
On completion of the course, the student will be able to:
- Apply the concepts of the wave guide parameters
- Experiment with microwave coupling devices
- Demonstrate the operation of Microwave generators and radiators
- Design antenna with high frequency simulation software
Module 1:
- Familiarize microwave components and instruments.
- Measure the frequency and wave length of a microwave signal.
- Determination of VSWR of a given load.
Module 2:
- To measure the isolation between E and H arms of magic tee and demonstrate power division in magic tee.
- To demonstrate the isolation of E and H plane tee and its power division.
- To measure the coupling factor, insertion loss and directivity of directional coupler
- To measure VSWR, insertion loss and isolation of a circulator.
Module 3:
- Plot the V-I characteristics of Gunn diode.
- Plot the characteristics of reflex klystron tube.
- Measure the gain of Horn antenna.
Module 4:
- Familiarize high Frequency Simulation Software(FSS)
- Using FSS design a monopole antenna
- Using FSS design a dipole antenna
- Open Ended experiments**
Suggested Open Ended Projects
(Not for End Semester Examination but compulsory to be included in Continuous Internal Evaluation. Students can do open ended experiments as a group of 4-5. There is no duplication in experiments between groups. Open ended experiments should include the concepts of circuit design and application)
- Application of high frequency simulation software
- Radiation pattern of microstrip antenna
- VSWR measurements
- Gain and Directivity measurements
- Polarization plots
