This course is a continuation of fundamental courses on electrical circuits. The program includes advanced topics such as Laplace and Fourier transforms' applications in circuit analysis, s-domain circuit analysis, Bode plots, periodic non-sinusoidal steady-state, transmission lines, and filters. The skills in understanding advanced AC circuit theory are major components of professional competence for electrical and computer engineers. Throughout the semester, students are encouraged to apply critical thinking and problem-solving skills in class discussions and assignments.
