The major prerequisites for right away studying microwave devices and circuits are :
1.Basic knowledge of Electromagnetic Theory
2.Network Theoy (S parameters)
Microwave subject at UG level mainly deals with following topics:
1.Microwave Transmission Lines (basics)
2.Cavity Resonators
Rectangular and circular waveguide resonators.
3.Klystrons
Reentrant cavities,Velocity modulation,Bunching,Reflex klystron.
4.Travelling wave tubes
