Video Lectures and Courseware

Lincoln Laboratory video lectures present a series of lectures and courses developed at the Laboratory on a wide variety of technical subject matter. These free video courses vary from "introductory" to "advanced" in their content.

The audio and video of the lecturer, along with the PowerPoint slides from each lecture, have been recorded for each course and are presented simultaneously. These video lectures may be viewed using Adobe Flash, which is downloadable at no cost from Adobe at www.adobe.com. The PowerPoint slides for each lecture may be downloaded in PDF format, so that the viewer may make pertinent notes while viewing the lectures.

  • Introduction to Radar Systems  This set of 10 lectures (about 11+ hours in duration) was excerpted from a three-day course developed at MIT Lincoln Laboratory to provide an understanding of radar systems concepts and technologies to military officers and DoD civilians involved in radar systems and development, acquisition, and related fields. This course is presented by Robert M. O'Donnell, a recently retired member of the senior staff at MIT Lincoln Laboratory.

  • Adaptive Antennas and Phased Arrays The 16 lectures in this course cover the topics of adaptive antennas and phased arrays. Both theory and experiments are covered in the lectures. Part one (lectures 1 to 7) covers adaptive antennas. Part two (lectures 8 to 16) covers phased arrays. Parts one and two can be studied independently (in either order). The intended audience for this course is primarily practicing engineers and students in electrical engineering. This course is presented by Dr. Alan J. Fenn, senior staff member at MIT Lincoln Laboratory.

  • Additional video courseware is in development and will be posted when it has been approved for public release.
