Electromagnetic Theory
Electromagnetic Theory is a fundamental branch of physics that describes the behavior of electric and magnetic fields and their interactions with matter. It encompasses Maxwell's equations, which unify electricity, magnetism, and light into a single theoretical framework, explaining phenomena such as electromagnetic waves, radiation, and forces. This theory underpins modern technologies like wireless communication, electronics, and optics.
Developers should learn Electromagnetic Theory when working on hardware-related projects, such as embedded systems, RF (radio frequency) engineering, antenna design, or electromagnetic compatibility testing. It is essential for understanding signal propagation, interference, and the physical principles behind devices like sensors, transmitters, and receivers, enabling more effective design and troubleshooting in fields like telecommunications and IoT.
