  • EE 302: Signals and Systems II

    3.00 Credits
    Western New England University

    Prerequisite: EE 301. This is the continuation of EE 301 course and develops the students' ability to apply mathematical techniques to analyze discrete signals and systems. Students learn the fundamentals of sampling and the representation of discrete-time systems and modeling an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter. They also learn both ideal and approximate methods of reconstructing a signal from a sequence of samples, and learn z-transform, inverse z-transformation, discrete convolution, difference equations, discrete-time transfer functions, discrete Fourier transform (DFT), and its realization through the use of fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithms. Students also learn to analyze and design filters such as Butterworth, Chebyshev analog filters, Infinite Impulse Response (IIR), and Finiteduration Impulse Response (FIR) digital filters. Throughout the semester, MATLAB, a computational software program, is used to emphasize and to help in understanding important concepts of the course as well as a tool for solving homework problems. The methods of assessing student learning in this course are homework assignments, quizzes, in class exams, and a final exam. 3 cr.

    Western New England University

    Prerequisite: EE 206 or equivalent. Corequisite: MATH 350 or equivalent. This is a one-semester introductory course in one of the most important subjects in electrical engineering, electromagnetic field theory, and its applications. Radar, television, electric motors, fiber optics, and medical imaging all depend on knowledge from this area. Upon completing this course the students have a basic understanding of the mathematical tools used in modeling static or dynamic electromagnetic fields, the behavior of static or dynamic electro - magnetic fields in various media with different physical boundaries, and the use of electromagnetic field theory in such important applications as transmission lines, waveguides, and antennas. The primary methods of assessing student learning are homework assignments, quizzes, exams, and design projects. 3 cr.

  • EE 319: Electrical Engineering Laboratory I

    3.00 Credits
    Western New England University

    Prerequisite: EE 303 or concurrently. This course is the first of the three course sequence designed to give students handson experience in the use of laboratory instruments, collection and interpretation of data, and design and debugging of electrical analog and digital circuits. The course also serves to develop technical writing skills. Students investigate device characteristics according to the instructions given and compare with those expected from theory. They also design and build digital and analog electronic circuits and demonstrate by appropriate measurements that the circuits perform and meet the design specifications. Students prepare engineering reports for every laboratory experiment. The assessment is based on the quality of collected data and the written report. One class hour, one three hour lab. 2 cr.

  • EE 322: Electrical Engineering Laboratory II

    3.00 Credits
    Western New England University

    Prerequisite: EE 320 or concurrently. This course is the second of a sequence of three courses. The course builds on the skills developed in EE 319 and material learned in junior level courses. In this course students design and build electronic circuits with more than one device, determine parameters of device models, and use those for analysis and design of electronic circuits. The results of the laboratory work are reported to generate an engineering report. The assessment in this course is based on the quality of the work done in the laboratory and the report. One class hour, one three hour lab. 2 cr. Note: Courses that are numbered 4xx /5xx are available to entry level graduate students and seniors taking the course as a 400 level elective. The courses designated at the 500 level are generally provided for graduate students who may require a stronger foundation in a subject area before proceeding to 600 level courses. Separate syllabi are provided for each section that reflects the differences in expectations for seniors (400 level) and entry level graduate (500 level) students. Graduate students can expect additional journal research.
