This book provides a thorough description of classical electromagnetic radiation, starting from Maxwell's equations, and moving on to show how fundamental concepts are applied in a wide variety of examples from areas such as classical optics, antenna analysis, and electromagnetic scattering. Throughout, the author interweaves theoretical and experimental results to help give insight into the physical and historical foundations of the subject. A key feature of the book is that pulsed and time-harmonic signals are presented on an equal footing. Mathematical and physical explanations are enhanced by a wealth of illustrations (over 300), and the book includes more than 140 problems. It can be used as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in electrical engineering and physics, and will also be of interest to scientists and engineers working in applied electromagnetics.

Improved user-oriented computer programs are presented and described for analyzing the electromagnetic behavior of arbitrarily bent thin-wire antennas and scatterers. A given problem can involve several wires of different shapes and radii and the wires can be excited or loaded at arbitrary points along their lengths. Matrix methods are used with the method of moments to compute various quantities of engineering interest. For radiation problems these include current distributions, input impedances, and specified far-field patterns and near-field distributions. For scattering problems the current is again calculated along with specified scattered field and bistatic radar cross-section patterns. Particular emphasis is given to required data input, and illustrative examples are included. (Author).

This highly illustrated and accessible text will be an ideal introduction to the application of electromagnetics (EM) following an initial course in basic EM theory. The book covers the well established structure of elementary EM courses, beginning with Maxwell’s equations in integral form and developing the wave equation to show the essential properties of waves. In addition to providing a grounding in this traditional curriculum, the principal concern throughout is to make difficult concepts of electromagnetism more accessible. The adoption of time domain methods for this purpose is the book’s most important breakthrough, allowing the fundamentals of applied electromagnetics to be introduced with a clarity and simplicity not available through the conventional route. Another new aspect of this book is the integration of computational modelling methods with the standard theory of electromagnetic waves. The author presents a set of example programs written in the MATLAB language to support the ideas outlined in the text. The book is organized in a logical progression of ideas, starting with the general idea of wave motion and showing how the equations of electricity and magnetism lead to the existence of electromagnetic waves through the Maxwell’s equations. These ideas are then applied to simple accelerating charge models used in the engineering design of wire antennas. The concepts of resonance and antenna impedance are then treated from a time domain point of view. To reinforce the concepts of wave propagation, a chapter on computer modelling shows the rigorous procedures required to generate accurate numerical models of wave dynamics. The author extends these ideas to consider the properties of aperture antennas, showing how their important properties can be incorporated with the basic themes introduced earlier in the book. Finally, the important topic of wave scattering is introduced, once again from the point of view of time domain concepts.

Three user-oriented computer programs are presented and described for analyzing radiation from arrays of parallel vertical wires, parallel horizontal wires, and also arbitrary wire configurations over the surface of an imperfectly conducting earth. The first two programs are equipped to treat unequally spaced arrays of wires that can be of different lengths and radii and of arbitrary excitation and loading. The effects of the imperfectly conducting earth are accounted for in an essentailly exact manner by using the Sommerfeld formulation. The third program treats arbitrary wire antennas and incorporates the ground effects approximately by using the reflection-coefficient method. Computed output consists of current distribution, input impedances, and field patterns specified by the user.

The need for controlling interference and limiting noise problems in wireless communications systems starts at the most fundamental levels of circuit design. When efficient approaches for noise control are implemented at the circuit level, it helps significantly to ensure the effective noise control for the overall system design. This book is a practical reference for engineers who are particularly interested in practical case studies covering how to avoid undesired interference and noise problems in their designs. It covers a significant number of chapters dedicated to different aspects of digital, analog, and mixed mode analog/digital design which are directly affected by noise and interference issues. Each of the three Wireless Communications Design Handbook volumes addresses theory and immediate applications. The approach followed is strictly hardware-oriented. The material presented provides a good, practical, and theoretical background of noise sources and their analysis, as well as methodologies for minimizing interference problems in electronic design. - An applications-oriented reference for engineers, system designers, and practitioners - Includes computational techniques for simulation - Addresses the most common interference concerns in wireless communications circuit designs - Presents a hardware-oriented approach for addressing analog, digital, and mixed-made interference concerns with a focus on design - Addresses noise sources, interference models, and design solutions simultaneously - Combines analytical and computer modeling for interference analysis - Addresses interference concerns from the IC level to the subsystem level
