Module name (EN):
Name of module in study programme. It should be precise and clear.
High-Frequency Engineering
Degree programme:
Study Programme with validity of corresponding study regulations containing this module.
Electrical Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2005

German
Assessment:
Written examination

[updated 12.03.2010]
Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

E518. Biomedical Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2011 , semester 5, mandatory course, course inactive since 28.11.2013
E518 Electrical Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2005 , semester 5, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 120 hours (equivalent to 4 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 75 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
E101 Mathematics I
E201 Mathematics II
E301 Mathematics III
E304 Electrical Engineering Theory I

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will understand the fundamental differences between high-frequency and microwave engineering. They will have an appreciation of the special features of processing high-frequency signals and of fixed-line or wireless transmissions. Students will have acquired the necessary skills to solve the typical problems that arise in high-frequency engineering – such as optimizing power parameters, calculating matching networks and specifying transmission paths – and will be able to employ the standard computer-aided computational and design tools.
