Annotation
The subject gives practical knowledge dealing with emerging technology in new progressive frequency bands. It gives the basement of millimeter and submillimeter technology and mutual interactions submm and optical technology. In frame of the subject the theoretical principles as well as specific approaches to solution of transmission lines, subsystems and links in mm and submm region are mentioned.
