EEE, IIT GUWAHATI EE442 Microwave Engineering Laboratory General Instructions about the Laboratory EE442 Microwave Engineering Lab will consist of 5 Experiments. 1. Details about the marking schemes will be announced in laboratory sessions as well as in laboratory webpage. 2. Laboratory performance is evaluated based on the successful completion of the experiments, the results, regularity and sincerity in the lab. Students are required to come prepared for the corresponding experiments. The final results must be shown to the Tutors/Staffs. 3. Each group is required to submit one report for each experiment. 4. Lab Record: Lab record should be submitted with loose plain sheets tagged in a file cover when you come for the next experiment. Lab report should be written in the following manner: Expt. Number: Title: Date: Objective: Set-up Diagram: Observations (In tabular form): Results (Give graphs): Conclusion (Draw your own conclusions from the results): Precautions: Attach the result sheets signed by the Tutors/Staffs. 5. Discipline: It is essential that the students follow strict discipline in the Microwave lab. Understand the maximum allowable values of the equipment and components and never exceed them. Avoid careless connections that will cause damage to the equipments or components. Before leaving switch off power connection to all the instruments on your table. It is not advisable to do other works during the Laboratory session and if any student is found doing so, some marks will be deducted from the lab performance. No extra or make-up lab will be given under normal conditions. There will be 5 Experimental Labs: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
