Anotation:

The course presents advanced topics of classical electromagnetic field theory, especially: electric and magnetic vector potential; reciprocity, duality, and equivalence principle; Green's function; multipole expansion; scattering and characteristic modes; homogenization and Bloch's theorem; synthesis and topological optimization The knowledge gained in this course can be used in many branches of applied electromagnetism, especially in antenna theory and microwave circuit design.
