Elementary probability theory including random variables, p.d.f., c.d.f., generating functions, law of large numbers. Elementary stochastic process theory including covariance and power spectral density. Markov processes and applications. Prerequisite: E&C-Eng 364 or equivalent.

Review of semiconductor material properties. Carrier drift, diffusion, and generation-recombination processes in semiconductor devices. Fundamental theory of operation of p-n junction diodes, bipolar junction transistors (BJTs), metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) structures, and field-effect transistors (FETs). Implications of nanoscale dimensions in contemporary devices.

Electromagnetic fields in dielectric and lossy media, transmission lines, antennas and resonators treated with the concepts of duality, image theory, reciprocity, integral equations and other techniques. Boundary and initial value problems solved for several frequently encountered symmetries.

This is a stand-alone independent study designed by the student and faculty sponsor that involves frequent interaction between instructor and student. Qualitative and quantitative enrichment must be evident on the proposed contract before consent is given to undertake the study

E&C ENG 499Y is Part 1 of the senior honors thesis or project in ECE, to be followed in the spring by Part 2 (E&C ENG 499T for thesis or ECE 499P for project). Individual student research is directly contracted with the faculty chairs who supervise the work. In addition, all 499Y students participate in a common thesis/project seminar that addresses research-related communication and other aspects of the research process in a seminar/workshop format.

Analysis and synthesis of antenna elements and arrays. Topics include linear antennas, self and mutual impedances, aperture, travelling wave, and broadband antennas. Prerequisite: E&C-Eng 334 or equivalent.
