The question paper consists of two sections. The first part of the paper is a purely objective section having multiple choice type questions, the total marks for this section is 20. This section has to be solved first and it will be collected 30 minutes into the examination. The second part of the paper is descriptive in nature. It usually has eight questions of which the candidate must attempt five questions, each carrying 16 marks. The first part of the paper has short mathematical problems and four options are given for each. Some of the questions are what a waveguide section in a microwave circuit represents, or what is the X-band frequency range in a microwave is defined as. Some of the common topics for the second section are derive the wave equation for TM wave and obtaining all the field components in a rectangular waveguide, characteristics of the smith chart and describing the steps involved in the determination of normalized impedance using smith chart. Below are attached some of the previous year’s question papers for your help.
