Measuring technology 1

Measuring technology 1

The aim of the course is to teach the student how to work with basic measuring instruments, as well as commonly used measurement procedures. In the exercises, students will experience working with LabView software – the industry standard in measurement and automation.

Space Engineering – engineering (compulsory elective), 2nd semester
Degree of study: 2.
Prerequisite subjects: None
Prerequisites:
During the semester the student will develop 4 individual projects. The form of the examination is written followed by an oral discussion. The maximum score for the project is 40 points.
Final exam maximum 60 points.
The maximum score for the entire course is 100 points. Passing all exercises and submitting all assignments is a requirement for admission to the exam. The student’s final grade is determined by the current syllabus.

Learning outcomes:
The graduate of the course has an idea of electromagnetic (EM) fields excited by harmonic quantities. The energy transfer through EM fields and the processes that occur during this transfer.

Knowledge and understanding
After completing the course the student:
– knows the transfer of energy through EM fields and the processes that occur during this transfer,
– knows the effect of individual obstacles on the propagation of EM fields,
– knows the basic / elementary sources of EM fields. Acquired skills and competences
– ability to analyse and synthesize a radio-electronic chain,
– ability to match a radiator to a transmission line,
– ability to measure high-frequency parameters of circuits,
– ability to apply existing solutions to new problems related to the transmission of information between space objects,
– ability to design antennas,
– ability to propose a solution, defend the solution, present the solution and work as a team to implement the solution.

Brief outline of the course:
Maxwell’s equations (differential and integral form), boundary conditions, power and energy of EM field. Wave equation and its solution for sourceless, lossless environment, for lossy environment in different coordination systems. Wave propagation and its polarization, wave passage to other medium, wave reflection, perpendicular incidence, oblique incidence. Elementary EM field sources, elementary dipole, elementary loop. Finite length dipole, half wave dipole. Pocklington’s integral equation. Indoor and outdoor antenna problem. Antenna arrays. Radio communication equation. Methods and means for measuring electromagnetic parameters and fields.
