Course Overview
The course duration is 32 academic hours and will be delivered in hybrid mode of distance/frontal learning
7 distance learning meetings of 4 hours each and frontal 4 hours meeting at Rohde & Schwarz Israel
This is a comprehensive and intensive course. (see the course syllabus)
The course is presented by leading technical experts from industry and academia with many years of experience. (see Lecturers)
The course provides an introduction to fundamental as well as state of the art topics in modern RF, Microwave and Wireless Communications engineering.
The course first constitutes background of basic RF concepts, including Noise, Non-Linearity, Sensitivity, Dynamic Range, Transmission lines, S parameters, Impedance matching and more.
The course then reviews basic RF building blocks (Mixers, Oscillators, Filters etc.) describing how these are combined to form complete RF systems.
Advanced Digital Modulations is then presented.
The Course includes thorough description of Spectrum Analyzers, Signal Analyzers, Vector Network Analyzer, Electromagnetic Waves, Propagation of EM waves and Antennas.
The course concludes by defining important test and measurement terms and methods used to characterize RF components, RF modules up to full System performance.
This includes a series of practical demonstrations using modern RF test and measurement equipment.
