Would magnetism would produce electricity? Dr. S. Cruz-Pol, INEL 4152-Electromagnetics Would magnetism would produce electricity? Eleven years later, and at the same time, Mike Faraday in London and Joe Henry in New York discovered that a time-varying magnetic field would produce an electric current!

Time-Harmonic fields (sines and cosines) Dr. S. Cruz-Pol, INEL 4152-Electromagnetics Time-Harmonic fields (sines and cosines) The wave equation can be derived from Maxwell equations, indicating that the changes in the fields behave as a wave, called an electromagnetic field. Since any periodic wave can be represented as a sum of sines and cosines (using Fourier), then we can deal only with harmonic fields to simplify the equations.

Dr. S. Cruz-Pol, INEL 4152-Electromagnetics Polarization: Why do we care?? Antenna applications – Antenna can only TX or RX a polarization it is designed to support. Straight wires, square waveguides, and similar rectangular systems support linear waves (polarized in one direction, often) Circular waveguides, helical or flat spiral antennas produce circular or elliptical waves. Remote Sensing and Radar Applications – Many targets will reflect or absorb EM waves differently for different polarizations. Using multiple polarizations can give different information and improve results. Rain attenuation effect. Absorption applications – Human body, for instance, will absorb waves with E oriented from head to toe better than side-to-side, esp. in grounded cases. Also, the frequency at which maximum absorption occurs is different for these two polarizations. This has ramifications in safety guidelines and studies.
