Short Course - Advanced R.F.Circuit & System Design
Date: 2 - 6 Sept 1996
AN OPPORTUNITY TO ENHANCE YOUR CAREER
It is widely acknowledged that good RF Engineers are in short supply. As a
result the University of Surrey, in conjunction with EPSRC, have developed
an intensive 5 day course to help overcome this shortage. The course has
been specifically designed to cover the major elements relevant to
engineers working or starting out in the RF field and should provide them
with the expertise required to excel in this, their chosen field.
By joining some of the best experts in the field of RF engineering
delegates will quickly get to grips with the major aspects of RF Circuit &
System Design.
COURSE CONTENT
Advanced R.F. Circuit & System Design is an innovative and intensive
five day course which aims to provide engineers with a broad and detailed
knowledge of RF circuit design for both receivers and transmitters.
Special emphasis will be given to cellular & satellite mobile and personal
communication systems.
Subject areas include:
- Overview of Cellular Systems
- Small Signal Amplifier Design
- Power Amplifier Design
- Receiver System Design
THE LECTURERS
Tony Jeans is an experienced lecturer in Telecommunications & RF
Engineering at M.Sc level. He has performed extensive consultancy in
Digital Communications Receivers for the MOD.
Professor Underhill, Dean of Engineering,, Surrey University is an
expert in the field of Frequency Synthesis & low phase noise (oscillators)
where he is renowned for his research.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This course is intended for delegates wishing to consolidate and upgrade
their RF knowledge to improve their effectiveness in the Mobile Radio
Industry. Delegates will obtain an understanding of the technologies
behind receiver design including small signal RF amplifiers, synthesisers
and PA design. They will become fully conversant with the use of advanced
RF Design software packages, and their limitations, and the effects of EMC
with respect to both receiver and transmitter design. Extensive use of a
major CAD package will be a feature of this EPSRC supported course.
The format of the course is such that even those with only a rudimentary
understanding of the topic will quickly be brought up to speed.
