-
4.00 Credits
A study of electronic transmission systems. The course includes the detailed study of rf transmission lines with a concentration on their fundamental principles, specifications, operation and practical applications. The course also includes the study of the fundamental principles of wireless and fiber-optic communications. Electromagnetic interference and electrostatic discharge, standards and regulations, and an introduction to the concepts of distributed networks is also introduced.
-
4.00 Credits
This introductory course in the characteristics and applications of basic electric machinery will begin with a review of magnetic circuits and transformers. Single-phase, three-phase, autotransformers, instrument transformers and buck-boost transformers will be covered. Three-phase and single-phase induction motors, synchronous motors and synchronous generator, dc motors and dc generators will also be included. The laboratory exercises will involve operating and testing transformers and machines to determine their operating characteristics. Among these characteristics will be the efficiency and voltage regulation as determined by direct and indirect methods.
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to test engineering principles with emphasis on computer-controlled instrumentation and data acquisition using industry standard bus structures such as the IEEE-488 bus and related protocol, D/A, A/D, and parallel I/O interfaces. Application software will be written in Visual Basic for testing a particular unit and interfacing various GPIB instruments. Visual Basic will be used as the overall project management software for the Unit Under Test. Design for testability and related topics will also be covered. Laboratory projects will emphasize automated testing using the principles covered in class.
-
4.00 Credits
Analysis of continuous -time signals occurring in circuits and systems containing linear and nonlinear elements. Analysis methods include graphical techniques, Laplace transform, Fourier analysis, convolution, and difference equations. Fundamental topics regarding AM and FM communication systems, Bode plots for transfer functions of arbitrary complexity, classical filter responses, and practical second-order filter designs are also presented. An introduction to discrete-time systems including sampling theory is also covered. MathCad and PSpice are utilized in conjunction with some of the computational laboratory exercises.
-
4.00 Credits
This course will introduce students to the general principles of Systems Engineering through the development of an actual robotic systems. When completed, each student will understand the basic elements of system engineering design including requirements analysis, functional decomposition, subsystem decomposition, risk analysis, physical and logical interface specification, physical modeling, simulation, and life cycle planning.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduction to the programming and interfacing of embedded PC's, with emphasis on systems using single-board, x86-based, computers. Programming will introduce both assembly and C languages. Interfacing will emphasize the use of the serial, parallel and USB ports. Operating systems will emphasize Linux and DOS. The PC BIOS and peripherals such as disk drives and video interfaces will also be studied.
-
3.00 Credits
A study in the applications of several key programming environments. This course covers such topics as: data types, structures, functions, arrays, file I.O., system calls, data portability, security and Internet related topics as they pertain to the appropriate programming language.
-
1.00 - 4.00 Credits
Special topics selected by the department. Offered on a demand basis.
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the design of biomedical instrumentation using a graphical programming language such as LabVIEW or HP VEE. Topics include the design and programming of virtual systems such as cardiac monitors, healthcare information management systems, and patient monitoring systems.
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the principles of the major imaging equipment including x-ray radiology, x-ray computed tomography (CT), ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Includes a discussion of other emerging imaging technologies such as nuclear imaging (PET and SPECT).
