Radio Frequency Principles and Applications

Now in one convenient volume you can have all the information you need on real-world applications of electromagnetic theory, including the prediction, analysis, and measurement of electromagnetic fields and their effects. Radio Frequency Principles and Applications will guide you from the basics of electromagnetic theory to a full range of new and vital applications. Albert A. Smith, Jr. provides a wealth of practical information in an accessible style, without using abstruse theory or requiring complex mathematical derivations. Key topics covered include: Static and time-varying fields and their sources Ground wave propagation Antennas Radio frequency environments Waveforms and spectral analysis Two-wire transmission line theory Extensive references Radio Frequency Principles and Applications is an invaluable reference tool for engineers working in the diverse fields of radio frequency technology such as electromagnetic noise and interference, wave propagation, electromagnetic compatibility, antennas, microwaves, and radio science.
