ST- Intro/Antennas&Propagation

Introduction to antennas and radiowave propagation for microwave frequency applications. Antenna topics include basic antenna parameters, antennas in communication and radar systems, wire antennas. Propagation topics include direct transmission between a transmitter and a receiver, reflection and refraction, and propagation properties in ionosphere.

Advanced VLSI Design

A graduate version of ECE 559. Groups of students encouraged to work on VLSI chip designs tied into VLSI research in the Electrical and Computer Engineering or Computer Science departments. Involves knowledge of some additional aspects of computer architecture, circuit design, computer arithmetic, or a particular application area such as digital signal processing, control, cryptography, or computer graphics. Use of the chip within an overall sytem also stressed.

VLSI Design

Lab. The design of very-large-scale integrated circuits. Experience in VLSI design through team projects emphasizing issues involved in the design of an entire custom chip. CAD tools used in the design process, resulting in specification of circuitry suitable for fabrication. Prerequisite: E&C-ENG 558.

Embedded Systems

Embedded systems sense, actuate, compute, and communicate to accomplish tasks in domains such as medical, automotive, and industrial controls. Informal methods of hacking together embedded systems are at odds with the criticality of their applications. This course will introduce recent developments toward more rigorous modeling and verification of embedded and cyber-physical systems.
