Highly respected authors have reunited to update the well known 1981 edition which is still
hailed as one of the best in its field. This edition includes recent antenna innovations and
applications. It features a succinct treatment of the finite difference, time domain (FDTD)
computational technique. It is also the first text to treat physical theory of diffraction
(PTD).
Principles as well as design data are given, permitting the engineer to evaluate and design
antennas.
Complete and thorough treatment of computational electromagnetics.
Complete survey of all antenna types with design information where applicable.
Expanded treatments of arrays, microstrip antennas, reflectors, measurements and computational methods.
Contents:
Antenna Fundamentals and Definitions.
Some Simple Radiating Systems and Antenna Practice.
Arrays.
Line Sources.
Resonant Antennas: Wires and Patches.
Broadband Antennas.
Aperture Antennas.
Antenna Synthesis.
Antennas in Systems and Antenna Measurements.
CEM for Antennas: The Method of Moments.
CEM for Antennas: Finite Difference Time Domain Method.
