This section of the catalog is concerned with antenna theory and techniques. Many of the courses are taken from other sections of the course catalog, and are also placed here so that they can be easily found by those interested in antennas and antenna measurement.
Click on the course number to see a detailed description of each course and registration instructions.
Courses marked "(free)" are available to all, whether or not you have a current subscription. All other courses require a current subscription for access. We offer these free courses to allow you to try out our training before you subscribe.
If there is a course you would like to see us develop in this section you can always suggest a course.
| Course No. | Course Title | Eq. Hours* | Prerequisites |
| ANT120 | The Friis Transmission Equation This course covers the Friis transmission equation. This equation models the coupling between two antennas under the assumption of far-field and free-space conditions. |
1 | EE103 |
| RADAR103 | The Radar Equation This is a short course on the radar equation. It includes a short derivation, and some description on how one would use it. |
2 | RADAR100 EE103 |
| MEAS404 | Introduction to Antenna Measurement Concepts This is an introductory course that covers the terminology associated with antennas and antenna measurement. |
3 | MEAS101 EE104 MATH110 |
| MEAS450 | Basic Far-Field Antenna Measurement A basic course on far-field antenna measurement techniques. Included are outdoor range, and anechoic chamber measurements of antenna parameters. |
5 | MEAS404 |
| MEAS451 | Anechoic Chamber, Near-Field and Outdoor Ranges A basic course in anechoic chamber, near-field, and outdoor ranges. The basic variations of these types of ranges are discussed. |
2 | MEAS450 |
| MEAS452 | Gain Extrapolation Antenna Measurements This is a short course on the gain extrapolation method of determining antenna gain. |
1 | MEAS451 |
| MEAS453 | Planar Near-Field Antenna Measurements This is a basic overview of the foundation and practice of planar near-field antenna measurements. It is meant to be the foundation for future courses on the topic. |
4 | MEAS404 |
| ANT210 | Introduction to Phased Arrays In introductory course on phased arrays. Considers arrays of isotropic radiators to develop some of the basic principles. Assumes understanding of complex numbers, and knowledge of basic antenna parameters. |
3 | MEAS404 |
* Equivalent hours are the equivalent classroom hours. Same as CEU (continuing education units), RU (Recertification units), and PDH (personal development hours).
