About this page
This page separates the course into lectures and notes. It is still under construction and only Lecture #4 information in it.
Lecture #1 Electromagnetics – A Review
Lecture #2 Electromagnetic properties of matter - Dispersion
Lecture #3 Wave Equations and Solutions
Lecture #4 Radiation from charges and currents
The notes aim to derive a solution for Maxwell's equations using vector and scalar potentials. Then to express the same potentials as functions of current densities. This method alows the user to more easily obtain the electric and magnetic fields instead of directly solving Maxwell's equations. The option of presenting the E and H fields is still explored, presenting the fields in terms of the sources that create them. The second part of the notes provides insight into far-fields in terms of sources, far-field conditions and derives the radiation integrals.
