Electromagnetic Waves and Antennas, vol.1, paperback

This book provides a broad and applications-oriented introduction to electromagnetic waves and antennas, with MATLAB examples. The printed version of the book has been split into two volumes, each with its own index, but with the list of references and appendices included only in volume two. The contents of the two volumes are as follows: Vol.1-Waves: Propagation, reflection, and transmission of plane waves, analysis and design of multilayer films. Waveguiding systems, including metallic, dielectric, and plasmonic surface waveguides, transmission lines, impedance matching, S-parameters. Vol.2-Antennas: Radiation fields, linear and aperture antennas, diffraction theory, plane-wave spectrum, Fourier optics, superdirectivity and superresolution concepts, antenna array design, numerical methods for linear antennas, and coupled antennas.
