Advanced Microwave and Millimeter Wave Technologies

This book is planned to publish with an objective to provide a state-of-the-art referencebook in the areas of advanced microwave, MM-Wave and THz devices, antennas andsystemtechnologies for microwave communication engineers, Scientists and post-graduatestudents of electrical and electronics engineering, applied physicists. This reference bookis a collection of 30 Chapters characterized in 3 parts: Advanced Microwave and MM-wavedevices, integrated microwave and MM-wave circuits and Antennas and advanced microwavecomputer techniques, focusing on simulation, theories and applications. This book provides acomprehensive overview of the components and devices used in microwave and MM-Wavecircuits, including microwave transmission lines, resonators, filters, ferrite devices, solid state devices, transistor oscillators and amplifiers, directional couplers, microstripeline components,microwave detectors, mixers, converters and harmonic generators, and microwave solid-stateswitches, phase shifters and attenuators. Several applications area also discusses here, likeconsumer, industrial, biomedical, and chemical applications of microwave technology. It alsocovers microwave instrumentation and measurement, thermodynamics, and applications innavigation and radio communication.
