The electromotive force around a closed field is proportional to
the rate of change of flux of the magnetic field B ( )
Electromotive Force: Faradays law
In differential form this law is expressed by the following formula:

Polarization
Polarization is a property of wave that describes the
orientation of their oscillations.
EM wave: light wave, exhibit polarization;
When light travels in free space, in most cases it
propagates as a transverse wave the polarization is
perpendicular to the wave's direction of travel.
Acoustic waves: Sound waves in a gas or liquid do not
have polarization because the direction of vibration and
direction of propagation are the same.

If EM wave is composed of two plane waves ofequal amplitude, and by 90 phase
difference, then the wave is said to be circularly polarized.
Circularly Polarization

Circularly Polarization
Electric field of the passing wave does not change strength(constantmagnitude) but only changes direction in a rotary manner.

Elliptically polarized wave consists of two perpendicular waves of unequal amplitude
which differ in phase by 90.
Elliptical Polarization
If electric field magnitude is not same or and the phase angle is other than 0, 90, 180.

Elliptical Polarization
Elliptical
The electric field vector describes an ellipse in any fixed plane intersecting, and normal to, the
direction of propagation.
If two plane waves of differing amplitude are related in phase by 90, or if the relative phase is
other than 90 then the light is said to be elliptically polarized.

Linear polarization
7/29/2019 Unit-1fundamentals of Electromagnetic
13/91
Linear polarization
The orientation of a linearly polarized EM wave is defined by the direction of
the electric field vector.
- For example, if the electric field vector is vertical direction (alternately up
and down as the wave travels) the radiation is said to be vertically polarized.
A plane electromagneticwave is said to be linearly
polarized.
7/29/2019 Unit-1fundamentals of Electromagnetic
14/91
Over long distances, the atmosphere can cause the polarization of a radio wave to
fluctuate, so the distinction between horizontal and vertical becomes lesssignificant.
Some wireless antennas transmit and receive EM waves whose polarization
rotates 360 degrees with each complete wave cycle. This type of polarization,
called elliptical or circular polarization,
7/29/2019 Unit-1fundamentals of Electromagnetic
15/91
Thus, a vertical antenna receives and emits vertically
polarized waves, and a horizontal antenna receives or emits
horizontally polarized waves. The best short-range
communications is obtained when the transmitting and
receiving (source and destination) antennas have the same
polarization.
The physical orientation of a wireless antenna corresponds
to the polarization of the radio waves received or transmitted
by that antenna.

Lorentz force
1. The force(F) acting on a charge(e) , which is at
rest within an electric field(E), is:
F = Ee.(1)
2. The force acting on a small wire element(dl),
carrying electric current(I), which is placed in a
magnetic field(B), is:
F= I dl x B(2).

These two equations suggest that for a charge(e) moving
with velocity(u) , the total force(F) acting on it is(at once
charge movement/velocity from one-2-other point):
F= e (E + u + B).(3)

For a continuous charge() and current(J) distribution, it
is convenient to define the force density (f) is

ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVE PROPAGATION
Electromagnetic waves are propagated in:
1. Vacuum/air/outer space
2. Conducting media
3. Non-conducting media
ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVE PROPAGATION
7/29/2019 Unit-1fundamentals of Electromagnetic
25/91
ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVE PROPAGATION
1. Vacuum/air/outer space
EM wave transports its energy through a vacuum at a speed of light c= 3.00 x 108 m/s.
The propagation of an EM wave through a material medium occurs at a net speed
which is less than 3.00 x 108 m/s.
CLICK: Animation
The mechanism of energy transport through a medium involves the absorptionand reemission of the wave energy by the atoms of the material.

Mechanism of EM energy transport through a medium
EM wave impinges
upon the atoms of a
material
Energy of that
wave is
absorbed
causes the electrons
within the atoms to
undergo vibrations
After a short period
of vibrational
motion
The vibrating
electrons create a
new EM wave
Frequency of
new EM wave is
same as 1st EM
wave.
These vibrations
occur for only a
very short time
Then they delay the
motion of the wave
through the medium
Energy of the EM
wave is reemitted
by an atom
It travels through
a small region of
space between
atoms.
It reaches
the next
atom
Then it is known as
EM wave is
absorbed,
transformed into
electron vibrations
and then reemittedas an EM wave.

OBSERVATIONS
The actual speed of an EM wave through a material medium isdependent upon the optical density of that medium.
Different materials cause a different amount of delay due to the
absorption and reemission process.
Different materials have their atoms more closely packed and thus the
amount of distance between atoms is less.
These two factors are depend upon the nature of the material throughwhich the EM wave is traveling.

Electric and magnetic fields of a plane
wave are perpendicular to each other and
both perpendicular to the direction of the
propagation.

For times much larger than the relaxation time there are practically no
charges inside the conductor, All of them have moved to its surface where
they form a charge density

Permittivity is the measure of the resistance that is encounteredwhen forming an electric field in a medium. i.e.
Permittivity: it is a measure of how an electric field affects, and
is affected by, a dielectric medium.
Permittivity relates to a material's ability to transmit (or "permit") an
electric field.
It Describes how much electric field (more correctly, flux) is
'generated' per unit charge.
Permeability is the measure of the ability of a material to
support the formation of a magnetic field within itself.
It is the degree of magnetization that a material obtains inresponse to an applied magnetic field.

Why use Microwaves?

In early century, Communication using electromagnetic radiation
(except for light) used very long wavelengths (low frequencies)
which traveled great distances.
Electronics were developed, including the vacuum tube
Microwaves are easier to control (than longer wavelengths) because
small antennas could direct the waves very well.
Energy could be easily confined to a tight beam.
This beam could be focused on another antenna of dozens of miles away.
Another characteristic is because of high frequency, greater amountsof information could be put on them.
Both of these advantages (narow beamwidth and modulation bandwidth)
