This lecture covers the application of Maxwell's equations to antennas, focusing on the concepts of radiation, potentials, source currents, and diffraction. The instructor explains how to define magnetic and electrical potentials, solve for source and diffracted currents, and analyze full-size antennas. The lecture also delves into the properties of plane waves, spherical waves, and polarization, providing insights into wave propagation and power density. Practical examples and theoretical models are presented to illustrate the concepts, including incremental models and impedance matching. By the end of the lecture, students will have a comprehensive understanding of how Maxwell's equations are utilized in the design and analysis of antennas.
