Electrical systems are fundamental to our way of life, including electrical power, telecommunications and automatic control systems. In this unit, you will learn mathematical techniques to analyse and design a wide range of these electrical systems, such as electrical power distribution and transmission networks and control systems. You will be introduced to the concept of linear time invariant systems and a range of mathematical tools used in electrical circuit analysis such as forward and inverse Laplace transforms, s-domain circuit analysis and transfer functions. You will be also introduced to the frequency response of a system and you will identify different types of filters and design analogue filters for given specifications. Through this unit, you will gain hands-on experience in circuit construction and performance analysis in laboratory sessions and through the use of circuit simulation software. This unit will also provide you with opportunities to further develop communication skills through preparation of professional documentation and team communications. All students are required to have access to a computer and to make frequent use of the Internet. Students enrolled in distance mode are required to attend a compulsory Residential School.

All on-campus students are expected to attend scheduled classes – in some units, these classes are identified as a mandatory (pass/fail) component and attendance is compulsory. International students, on a student visa, must maintain a full time study load and meet both attendance and academic progress requirements in each study period (satisfactory attendance for International students is defined as maintaining at least an 80% attendance record).
Each 6-credit Undergraduate unit at CQUniversity requires an overall time commitment of an average of 12.5 hours of study per week, making a total of 150 hours for the unit.
Assessment Task | Weighting |
---|---|
1. Written Assessment | 15% |
2. Written Assessment | 15% |
3. Practical and Written Assessment | 20% |
4. Examination | 40% |
5. Online Quiz(zes) | 10% |
This is a graded unit: your overall grade will be calculated from the marks or grades for each assessment task, based on the relative weightings shown in the table above. You must obtain an overall mark for the unit of at least 50%, or an overall grade of ‘pass’ in order to pass the unit. If any ‘pass/fail’ tasks are shown in the table above they must also be completed successfully (‘pass’ grade). You must also meet any minimum mark requirements specified for a particular assessment task, as detailed in the ‘assessment task’ section (note that in some instances, the minimum mark for a task may be greater than 50%).
