Specialization profile--Quasi optical systems
The profile Quasi Optical Systems focuses on the education of students on various theoretical and technological aspects for the development of systems operating at frequencies >100GHz with emphasis on quasi-optical architectures and electronic based front-ends. Students in within this specialisation will learn basic skills in quasi-optical antenna design, high frequency EM analysis techniques, integrated technology, and high-frequency measurement techniques. As a student you will be able to work in new emerging THz applications in the area of sensing and communications.
For this profile, compulsory courses are:
ET4169 Radar I: From Basic Principles to Applications (Q3)
EE4620 Spectral Domain Methods in Electromagnetics (Q4)
EE4605 Integrated Circuits for RF/Wireless Applications (Q2)
ET4358 Fundamentals of Wireless Communications (Q3)
