5. Electromagnetics and Antenna Engineering Laboratory:
The corresponding laboratory is suitable for the students to implement their knowledge achieved in electromagnetics field theory and antennas. With the use of transmission line systems as well as coaxial cables, standing waves are observed followed by measuring of standing wave ratio and reflection under various load conditions. Frequency and wavelength measurement of unknown signals are also carried out using the standing waves. Attenuation characteristics can be achieved for the coaxial transmission lines. Measurement of radiation patterns of various planar and non-planar antennas such as wire monopole antenna, dipole antenna, log-periodic antenna, circular loop antenna, aperture antenna such as horn antenna etc. are carried out in both the orthogonal planes.
