- Brief description
Electrical engineering is indispensable for the transmission of energy and information. In general the occuring processes are time dependent. This course is based on "Electrical Engineering 1 (Me)" focusing on time dependent processes. After successful completion of this course the students are familiar with the time dependent behaviour of ideal passive electrical components. They are able to use mathematical methods to perform basic calculations in alternating current networks in the case of sinusoidal stimulation.
- Teaching and learning outcomes
1. Slowly changing magnetic field: Law of induction
2. Self-inductance and mutual inductance
3. Sinusoidal alternating quantities and their representation
4. Complex description of sinusoidal alternating quantities
5. Alternating current behaviour of ideal components R, L, C
6. Analysis methods in alternating current circuits
7. Signals on ideal lines: reflection, characteristic impedance
- Overall workload
The total workload for the module is 150 hours (see also "ECTS credit points and grading").

- Knowledge Broadening
Students who have successfully completed this module will have acquired the necessary basic knowledge for calculating electrical networks with time-varying voltages and currents. They will be able to apply the knowledge gained in ‘Electrical Engineering 1 (Me)’ to alternating current applications. Furthermore, they will be familiar with the propagation characteristics of signals on lines.
- Application and Transfer
After successfully completing the module, students will be able to apply basic mathematical methods for network calculation with sinusoidal excitation over time. They will be able to describe the behaviour of signals on lines.
Students who have successfully completed this module will be able to correctly apply important calculation methods for the analysis of AC circuits with sinusoidal periodic excitation. Furthermore, they will be able to calculate the propagation delay effects for signals on lines.
- Communication and Cooperation
Students who have successfully completed this module are able to discuss the issues they are working on with other students and organise appropriate collaboration among themselves. They are able to summarise the results of their experimental work in a short paper.
