This tutorial provides a brief introduction to the basics of using MATLAB, the MathWorks’ Corporation’s mathematical computation package. It was written to accompany Fundamentals of Electromagnetics with MATLAB, Second Edition by Lonngren, Savov, and Jost for students coming to the first engineering electromagnetics course with no or little prior exposure to MATLAB. Students who have purchased the text and registered their books are receiving the Tutorial as a free supplement on the Student CD or accessible from the book’s website upon User log-in. Those who have purchased a previous version of the text or are using another book can purchase an “Upgrade CD” from SciTech that contains the MATLAB Tutorial or access it, along with other helpful files, from the dedicated Lonngren et al website www.scitechpub.com/lonngren2e.htm.

MATLAB in Today’s ECE Curriculum MATLAB is a high-level programming language, as well as an interactive environment for technical computing. MATLAB allows you to perform computationally intense tasks with minimum development time due to its many built-in functions and capabilities. MATLAB also offers extensive visualization capabilities with easy-to-use routines for plotting data in a multitude of formats. To extend MATLAB beyond it core capabilities, there are a large number of add-on products, called toolboxes, that provide additional capability for electrical and computer engineers (ECE) in such areas as image processing, signal processing and communications, mathematics and optimization statistics and data analysis, control system analysis and design, and many other specialty areas. Rare is the ECE curriculum today that does…
