This professor is an "anomaly"..... engaging, knowledgeable....wish I had a professor like him. Granted, he can BS, but its part of a dying art to engage students..... he brings it back full circle. You can tell this guy LOVES engineering..... wish more professors were like him.

Only a few professors teach an introduction to transmission lines well. Professor Durgin is one. Your students should consider themselves blessed. I'd be happy to sit in that front row.

What a sharp professor is Mr Durgin. His students are very lucky. It is very appreciated that he post this kind of videos. Thank you Mr Durgin

A professor who actually imparts meaningful UNDERSTANDING (instead of just spewing out equations devoid of meaning)!! I wish I had some professors like this back in my school days!

I feel like going back to college and learn more. This is really really top valuable lecture and fun I have found on youtube for many years. Thanks for your devotion.

I'm almost 20 years into my EE career and still learn from your videos. thx!

Thank you Professor Durgin, this was actually fairly enjoyable to watch!

Superb lecture. Prof Durgin really knows how to be engaging. Always effervescent!

i am student of a mechanical engineering i took minor in electromagnetism...i now know that EE is interesting. thanks professor :)

1 point 21 jiggahertz! Great Scott!

This has gotta be one of the best professors I've ever seen. Or my school really sucks. Probably both.

Please keep the videos coming. Your an interesting speaker, thanks for the info and knowledge. Electromagnetics is awesome. I'm taking a wireless communication class which teaches these concepts (transmission, standing wave, impedance, etc.) and I only have a calculus I background. Thinking about temporarily switching my major to mathematics after I attain my degree to solidify my mathematics background. I can do most math with my eyes closed accept for when you start getting into stuff like multivariable calculus and triple integrals and such.

This guy is a real geek! Just remember, you can't spell geek without a double E.

I really like the personal advice he gives like when he says " you don't get credit for complexity" I have run into this on the job and its true. There are other good nuggets too. Applying these kinds of things can get you a promotion

Thank you for such a wonderful explanation. Today I understood when to take into account the effect of Tx line theory.

Very well explained, I can't wait to see the rest of it. Regards from the Netherlands.

Thanks for sharing your lectures! This make my self-learning so easy.

Jump ahead10 min to get to the lecture. It's fairly introductory and doesn't go in detail.

Being taught by him would be such a sublime experience !

7:57 telegraph invention story is touching... it reminds me of a quote by General of the Army Douglas MacArthur ... "The history of the failure of war can almost be summed up in two words: too late."

Damn! Wheres does this lecturer teach! I wanna enroll there for my masters!

Beautiful. I've been looking for this. Thank you.

my professors were robots, this is amazing!

8 yrs later and i still enjoyed the lecture

great lecture ty Dr.Greg

Really very enjoyable 🙌🏻

Ok, can one explain to me whit out theorical equations, is it true that currents causes the mayority of problems in a line of transmision?

I totally noticed that too!

Thank you for ur lecturers.

Amazing professor!

I thought this was going to be about transmission line speaker enclosures and their 1/4 wave length theory.

How the hell did he mess that up??? A 10 Ghz wavelength is ~3cm, not .1 mm. Other than that, it was a very good introduction.

7:10 skipping all the rambling

actual introduction to Transmission line 22:20

GOOD LECTURE

I think you've confused the distance traveled with wavelength. The 0.1mm is the analogous distance traveled to the original example above it.

thanks for sharing

Great class!

I'm having a hard time understanding transmission lines.. this lecture will be a big help for me? anyone who already watched this lecture? tell me.

Absolutely amazing professor.

Thank you. raphael santore

I don't understand how you get that far in your education and still say 'Jigahertz' good lecture though :)

Volts don't move.

which institution is this being taught at?

nice one doc ето мне нравиться))))

So this is what i would be if i were decided to do my thing. Damn i gots to does it

Thank you Sir!

ok now i've just got placed in a transmission line factory and i'm completely new to this thing...will anyone please guide me through the whole process of transmission lines and the engineering part regarding to it.....

seems one of his students is busy with facebook.....

hi from Algeria Mr

now everybody knows he checks his facebook during classes...

dude in 2nd row using facebook

Good

He's looking down at the answers.

Still got his name wrong even after correcting it.

My guy really says jiga lolll. Awesome lecturer though

first time i've ever heard GHz being said "jigahertz" lol

what a homie

A step toward demonstrating your ability in electronics, Greg, might be making a video without that annoying background hum.

fast forward to around 10 min

I watched 4 episodes. While I kinda like Prof. Durgin and the topic as a ham radio operator is close to home, I am disappointed the compete lack of any practical examples and demonstrations. Unnecessarily theoretical IMHO.

14:27 Maryland accent

your email please

Georgia Tech

or if its a Human body....... lmao 15:30

That chap with a laptop is distracting..

fb status ....listen to sub status..kid

got to skip a lot of time on this video

I appreciate your honesty in the beginning, but that's not a very validating honesty. You've clearly stated, quite eloquently that nobody is gonna remember your class. Not only that but the class is inherently complex for no good reason other than a barrier to entry. I think you might not see it that way being endowed in academia, but you've already given any of your smarter students a reason to leave. Learning is not about red tape and your "relatable" back story. Edit: Half way through, you're making bad analogies and using hear say history to obfuscate the knowledge. The academic game of obfuscation you've found "intuitive" is not helping anybody but your own ego. Don't wow with words, wow with knowledge. I'd drop this class in one lecture.

man what a lousy teacher talking about self love.

Not interesting
