Size reduction in mesoscopic and nano-scoping electronic and plasmonic devices makes classical quantum mechanics (QM) and electrodynamics (QED) in electronics inevitable. Electronics engineers are unfamiliar with the mathematical apparatus in QM and QED, which can be formidably abstract. This book explains QM and QED to engineers.

This 2nd edition is an updated, revised and expanded version of the original 2007 text. The figures are now colour and new material has been added to address recent advances in the field. The authors are well known in the antenna measurement world and this remains a unique book covering planar near-field measurements.

Compiled by two editors with substantial experience in developing algorithms to numerically solve integral equations in the case of discretized real-life structures, this book explains the main available approaches for the numerical solution of surface integral equations for analysing real-world multi-scale electromagnetic problems.

This text is written for the advanced student or researcher in the fields of antenna design, optical device design and in advanced electromagnetics, to aid better understanding of electromagnetic resonance phenomena and their applications.

Microwave power transmission has a range of promising applications, but in order to make it a reality, the problem of adequate and correct beamforming has to be solved. This book explores the theory behind developing different beamforming techniques that might be used in microwave power transmission.

The book focuses on various aspects of EM radiation from a variety of perspectives. The goal is to provide the reader with a conceptual basis for understanding EM radiation and to introduce some associated computational tools for obtaining relevant quantitative results relating to its distribution.

This book discusses recent advances in the application of deep learning techniques to electromagnetic theory and engineering. The contents represent pioneer applications of deep learning techniques to electromagnetic engineering, where physical principles described by the Maxwell's equations dominate.

This book focuses on the advances made in the topic of uncertainty quantification (UQ) and stochastic analysis for the design of electromagnetic devices, circuits and systems. It covers the recent explosion in surrogate modelling (metamodeling) techniques for numerically efficient UQ - an attractive, efficient, and popular approach.

This book presents some of the emerging evolutionary algorithms (EAs) and their variants. It presents design cases of different EAs applied to popular design problems in antennas and wireless communications. The book contains both cases of single and multi-objective optimization.

This book presents cutting-edge research advances in the rapidly growing areas of nanoantennas and plasmonics as well as their related enabling technologies and applications.

Written by a team of leading experts in the field, this book presents recent advances in the design of RF/microwave planar filters. It covers a wide range of different design types, technologies and applications for wireless, microwave, communications and radar systems.

This book covers recent achievements in the area of advanced analytical and associated numerical methods as applied to various problems arising in all branches of electromagnetics.

This book starts with tutorials about the science of filamentation before presenting chapters on the latest research, technologies and applications. It cover wide aspects of light filaments considering various mediums of propagation, with structured or single filaments, and filaments of different colours, as well as combined filaments.

This book outlines the role of the near-field to far-field (NF-FF) transformations in the framework of EM measurements, their development and the current state of art. The classical NF-FF transformation techniques (without and with probe compensation) are summarized.

This comprehensive resource conveniently combines advanced topics of electromagnetic theory, a high level of mathematical detail, and the well-established ubiquitous Method of Moments applied to the solution of practical wave-scattering and antenna problems formulated with surface, volume, and hybrid integral equations.

This book is devoted to the specific problems of electromagnetic field (EMF) measurements in the near field and to the analysis of the main factors which impede accuracy in these measurements.

This book has been fully updated to reflect the latest developments in the field of radio communications. This book introduces the basic concepts and mechanisms of radiowave propagation engineering in both the troposphere and ionosphere, and includes greater emphasis on the needs of digital technologies and new kinds of radio systems.

Key Features Theory of diffraction at black bodies introduces the Shadow Radiation, a fundamental component of the scattered field. RCS of finite bodies of revolution-cones, paraboloids, etc. -models of construction elements for aircraft and missiles. Scheme for measurement of that part of a scattered field which is radiated by the diffraction (so-called nonuniform) currents induced on scattering objects. Development of the parabolic equation method for investigation of edge-diffraction. New exact and asymptotic solutions in the strip diffraction problems, including scattering at an open resonator.

The long awaited revision of the classic book Transmission Line Transformers, by Jerry Sevick, is now in its fifth edition and has been updated and reorganised by Raymond Mack to provide communication engineers with a clear technical presentation of both the theory and practical applications of the transmission of radio communication.Sevick's Transmission Line Transformers: Theory and Practice, 5th Edition reviews the underlying principles that promote a better understanding of transmission line transformers. Ideal for academics and practicing engineers, this edition is divided into two clear parts for easy reference. Part one is a review of the theory and new concepts, including a discussion on the magnetic properties that affect the core of a transmission line transformer. Part two essentially focuses on the 'practice' element of the book title. This section has been updated to reflect the significant changes in component suppliers over the 30 years since the first edition of the book.Highlights of this title include the coverage of substantial background theory, recent work on fractional ratio transformers and high power Balun designs, and provides updated sources for transformer materials to reflect mergers, sales, and business failures over the past 20 years. There is also expanded coverage of commercial sources of low impedance coaxial cable; expanded construction hints for purpose built rectangular parallel transmission lines; plus an updated test equipment chapter to reflect modern computer based experimenter grade test equipment sources. Ray has leveraged his experience with ferrite materials for switching power to explain the performance characteristics of the ferrite materials used for RF power transmission line transformers.
