Abstract

Electromagnetic theory covers the basic principles of electromagnetism. This chapter explores relationships between electric and magnetic fields. The chapter describes the behaviour of electromagnetic wave. The four sets of Maxwell's equations which underpin the principles of electromagnetism are briefly explained. An illustration on wave polarization and propagation is presented. The author describes the classification of waves according to their wavelengths (i.e. the electromagnetic spectrum).
