Syfte

The course gives the basic knowledge that researchers and engineers in accelerator and radar technology, and wired and wireless communication system should master. It describes the physics of optical fibers, transmission lines, waveguides and microwave cavities. It also describes the microwave technique used in particle accelerators. Many of the applications are taken from the accelerators that are designed for MAXIV and ESS.
