The problems and solutions for the midterm exam of the ece 3065 course focused on electromagnetics and waveguides. The exam covers topics such as cutoff wavelength and frequency calculation for different waveguide modes, transverse-wave impedance, power efficiency, reflection and transmission coefficients, and rfid circuit analysis.

ECE 3065
Problems
(a) Calculate the cuto® wavelength ¸oc and the cuto® frequency fco for the dominant, the ¯rst two higher-order TE modes and the ¯rst two higher-order TM modes. (10%)
(b) Determine the transverse-wave impedance for the dominant, the ¯rst higher-order TE and the ¯rst higher-order TM modes at f = 3: 5 GHz. How close are they to the TEM value? What will be the value of the transverse-wave impedance of the dominant mode at a dual-band short-range broadband module operating at f = 50GH z (DO NOT CALCULATE IT!!) and why? (10%)
(c) There have been three proposed frequencies for WiMax operations: 1.7 GHz, 2.5 GHz and 3. GHz. Which one(s) would operate with the best power e±ciency for this waveguide and why? (10%)
(d) After removing the side walls (short side), recalculate the cuto® frequency for the dominant and the ¯rst two-higher modes, after identifying them. (10%)
(a) the re°ection and transmission coe±cients, (15%) and
(b) how many db's it's lower than the incident ¯eld (5%)
(c) the MAGNETIC ¯eld amplitude of the transmitted wave (15%).
(d) the angle of minimum power re°ection. Would this angle have a di®erent value if the incident wave were parallel-polarized? (10%)
(b) Is this a reciprocal and/or lossless structure and why? (10%)
(c) Give the ¿- and the ¼- equivalent circuit. (10%)
(d) What is the exact resonant frequency of this geometry? Does it need to be modi¯ed for an e®ective RFID operation? (5%)
