(The fee includes the course material, breakfast and lunch)

Accommodations:

There are several low cost accommodation at Parit Buntar Inn is RM 80 / room, Damai Hotel is RM 90 / room and any Hotel in Butterworth of 40 Km from USM

Introduction:

RF and microwave engineering are becoming more important to the industries especially in communication systems based industry. The designs of RF and microwave circuit are tedious and need a special treatment. In this course, the participants are exposed to the theory and simulation of the circuits using ADS (Advanced Design System Software)

Objective:

The short course intends to expose the participant the theory as well as simulation and design of matching network, couplers, filters, amplifier and oscillator using ADS. 

Course Content:

The course covers the following topics:-
- Matching and coupler design
- Filters design
-Low noise amplifier, high gain amplifier and oscillator
