What you will learn

Fundamentals in RF Wave Propagation

Understanding of How Antennas Receive and Transmit

Ability to Clearly Explain RF Principles

Knowledge of WiFi Data-Transfer Mechanisms

Factors in RF Link Budgets

Why take this course?

The mysterious nature of RF has long hindered the comprehension of its functions.  In reality, the behavior of RF is based on just a few simple laws of physics that are quite easily explained.   

Since this course is very visual, students will promptly be able to conceive RF and antenna fundamentals on a very basic level.  Using this foundation of understanding, students will then be able to easily absorb the more advanced principles of data transfer protocols.  These principles, along with the rest of the material in the course are presented with clean graphics, simple animations, crystal-clear explanations and real-life analogies.

This is a very good entry level coarse, and I will be recommending it to a number of people in our group

Good general knowledge of the fundamentals of antennas and how they are used in multiple situations. Depending on the antenna setups the fundamentals discussed gave a good overview of how the antenna properties are used. Nice lecture. I understand that this is a basic understanding course and appreciate the information given in this training.

While the course provides a good, surface-level general overview of antenna fundamentals, it is lacking in the RF area.

The course material does not support the test questions. Questions asked in the test IMO are more advanced than the level of the material covered in the lesson. Also, why so many questions (50) for a short lesson?

A good course that covers the RF basics in an engaging way - highly recommended for those interested in getting an introduction to antennas and propagation

Good overall for understanding antenna theory. Perfect for technical managers without an RF background.

Good course for the target audience (IT staff, and those learning /refreshing Wi-Fi skills etc.) REALLY good visual teaching methods, thanks! Let down a bit by the quiz section having some issues.

Bien apprécié ce cours. Il peut évidemment être suivi avec plus de math et physique mais initialement très bon. Il m'a bien orienté globalement dans les RF. Très Satistfait

The instructor/course producer is VERY good at explaining very complex topics in an easy to consume manner. Quite impressive.

A good overview of topics. I believe there are some mistakes in usage of dB vs. dBm at certain points which can be confusing to some. For instance, the pigtails don't contribute 1dBm of loss, they contribute 1dB of loss.

I think it's a good overview overall, but I think the intended student should have more than a fundamental understanding of high school physics to benefit fully from this course. I don't remember what logarithmic even means, for example. So perhaps more plain language would help the casual learner get through the course.

I was very skeptical because of how short the course content is. But this is a great course and is highly condensed. Every concept is very clearly explained and visualized. Highly recommended. Hank, plz make more courses on the topic with the same amazing format.

Down to earth, a great refresher or crash course for the newb and the 'seasoned Ham'(73!). Visuals help really lay the foundation for more. Feel more prepared to dive deeper on these topics

I don't like the course. Presentation doesn't have enough knowledge . He doesn't show all math according to question. Presentation is not enough people who don't understand English very well. And the questions have too much chose and much of them are unnecessary.
