Course description
This lecture includes basics of AC circuit analysis, such as (1) Alternating-current circuit, (2)Resonance circuit. These analyses are very important because all of todays electronic handheld devices equipped the wireless systems those are based on the resonance phaenomena. The course also includes (3) Two-port circuit analysis. This is very useful for debugging the systems.

In this course, students will also learn the transient phenomena and the distributed constant circuit.
(4) Transient phenomena:
 In the electrical circuits, the waveforms of power supply are drastically changed from steady state. The voltage and current of circuit element is also changed by switching. These phenomena are called "transient response". The transient response is closely related to the initial state just before changes. In this subject, the transient response for the circuits consist of R, L, and C will be analyzed by using differential equations.
(5) Distributed constant circuit:
 Electric circuits are basically analyzed as lumped constant circuits, although the circuit elements do not have dimensions, but exist as a point in the space. However, the circuit elements such as R, L, and C have to be handled as the distributed constant circuits, in which the circuit elements are spatially distributed, when the frequency of signal is very high and wavelength is shorter than the dimensions of electric circuit. In this subject, voltage and current for the transmission lines such as power lines and communication wires will be analyzed.
Purpose of class
The electric circuit is indispensable for research and development of all kind of recent electronic devices. Especially, when debugging a malfunction system, an anternating-current circuit analysis and two-port analyses lectured in this course are very useful. Also, the purpose of this class is to acquire analysis methods of transient response for electric circuits consist of R, L, and C, and to acquire analysis methods of voltage and current for the transmission lines such as power lines and communication wires.
