3.00 Credits
This course examines the theory and basic elements of fiber optic communications systems; fundamentals of transmission in optical fibers; source component operations including light emitting diodes and solid-state lasers; and coupling element and detector devices.Students analyze modulation and demodulation techniques and determine overall loop performance relative to bandwidth and signal-to-noise ratio.Design problems enhance student understanding.(Pre-requisites: EE 231, EE 301) Three credits.
-
1.00 Credits
Students are introduced to fiber optics with experiments on Snell's Law and total internal reflection.Students then use optical test equipment to measure the characteristics and applications of fiber optic cables, including simple communication systems.Fiber optic characteristics may include losses due to transmission, mismatch, and bending, optical fiber connections and splicing, and frequency response.Both in-lab computer assisted instruction and a textbook will be used to supplement the experiments.Students prepare laboratory reports each week on their results.(Co-requisite: EE 354) One credit.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers the design and operation of power electronics circuits, such as power supplies and motor controls.Using electronic circuit models for transistors and diodes developed in earlier courses, students analyze and design power circuits.Particular attention is paid to power dissipation and packaging.The accompanying laboratory course, ECE 360L, provides practical experience in conjunction with the lecture material.(Prerequisites: EE 301, EE 221) Three credits.
-
1.00 Credits
This lab applies the theory developed in EE 360 to actual devices.Students fabricate, test, and optimize their designs.They gain practical experience in packaging and cooling power circuits.One credit.
-
3.00 Credits
During this design course emphasizing individual creativity, students (working with a faculty mentor) develop project objectives and performance specifi-cations.At review meetings, students present progress on their project including analytic and experimental results to date.A final report and presentation demonstrates the accomplishments and significant conclusions.Faculty involvement creates a realistic engineering development environment.Students may take this course as independent study once the prerequisites have been met.(Prerequisites: departmental approval of project proposal following completion of non-elective electrical engineering courses and at least one major elective) Two credits.
-
3.00 Credits
In this two-semester capstone course, students work in teams on advanced projects that emphasize the engineering design approach.Each team works closely with a faculty mentor and conducts literature searches, synthesis, and in-depth analysis and experimentation.Individual team members make frequent presentations to faculty and peers; students receive instruction in effective communication to enable successful presentation skills.An oral presentation, written report, and working models complete the course requirements.Students begin the sequence in the fall term.(Prerequisites: completion of all non-elective courses and completion of adequate program requirements to enable graduation within one year of course completion) Three credits per semester; six credits total.
