Aim: To give the students an advanced introduction to electromagnetic field theory that will enable the student to keep up will specialized literature and to solve complex problems. Principles and techniques are treated within exact and asymptotic electromagnetic theory. In particular, the application of the Fourier transformation of fields from reflector antennas and fields in optoelectronics.
