2EE301: Network Analysis
The course Network Analysis and synthesis is a fundamental course offered to students of Semester-III B.Tech. in electrical engineering. It gives exposure to the topics such as network topology, methods of solving network equations, initial conditions in circuits, Laplace transform methods, electricity fundamentals, waveform synthesis, Network theorems etc. The course deals with understanding of basic methods of analysing and solving networks circuits behaviour of circuit elements like; R, L and C under various operating conditions. It also focuses on representation of any network in form of its network parameters. The understanding of this course is important as it lays the foundation for all other courses in electrical and electronic engineering. The course finds applications in all branches of engineering and hence is essential for inter disciplinary learning and research.
Objective of the course:
The objective of this course is to provide a comprehensive knowledge of basics of network analysis and synthesis
Pre-requisite:
The students are expected to have the prerequisite knowledge of basic electrical engineering like concept of load, single phase and three phase voltage, impedance and admittance parameters, basic circuit laws. They are also expected to have the knowledge of mathematics such as algebra, calculus, geometry, complex numbers, differentiation, integration etc. Students are expected to review these concepts before coming to class.
Course Outcomes (CO)
COs are clear statements of the expectations for student achievements in the course.
At the end of the course, a student will be able to –
