What you'll learn:
- This is a very basic fundamentals of RF, The main purpose of this course is to simply without providing any formulas or engineering skills provide the basic knowledge and topics needed in the RF field. At the end of this course you would have a general idea of Radio Frequency and related topics and components used day to day on this topic. This course briefly explains the topics without getting deep into each discussion just to have the student get a general idea.
- The student can then choose to go toward the RF Certificate provided by Rahsoft which in there we would be going deep into the topics by providing hand on design and examples from the industry. At the end of the certificate the student would have a complete knowledge of RF as well as some actual simulations such as Power Amplified Design to add to his resume. Again this would be for a person who would be taking all 15 courses which starts with this course as the first one.

Welcome to the firstcourse of the RF certificate series. In this topic we are going to explain the basic concepts of RF design in a simplest way possible. The audiencefor the RF basic course are electrical engineers, technicians, sales engineers and other employees of an RF-related company who want to have general idea of RF basic concepts.At the end of this course you will have a general knowledge of the fundamental topics discussed in RF industry. This is a great crash course for people who have interviews and need to a refresher on the RF topic within a few hours and go from zero knowledge to having a general understandingof most topics.
One of the most important things for us to have the most updated materials needed in the industry. Ahsan Ghoncheh, ourCo-Founder and Technical Adviser, consultswith different RF engineers atBroadcomm, Qualcomm, Apple and Skyworks on building practical curriculum and topics that are needed and in demand in the industry. So insteadof going the academic approach, we are going to an industry approach.
I want to thank you for choosing Rahsoft and trusting us.Pleasefeel free to contact us.We are truly excited and gratefulto be going with you on this journeyto becomingan RF expert. If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
