About the Book

A treatment of antenna theory and applications, with added emphasis on signal processing, imaging and smart antennas. The first four chapters cover essential and fundamental theory, while the final five deal with advanced topics, including the use of array antennas for imaging and smart antennas for mobile, wireless communications. A common thread that unifies the book is the concept of modern antennas as temporal-spatial filters, devices that are capable of space-time processing of signals. Many program listings are included to help final-year undergraduates, graduates and practising engineers study antenna characteristics, develop signal processing modules for antennas, and visualize the design and implementation of smart antennas and complex imaging routines.

Table of Contents:
Chapter 1 Introduction: Elementary principle; Broadcast frequency bands; Basic characteristics and definitions of terms; Basic antenna parameters; Reciprocity; Types of antennas; Waves along conductors and in free space; Maxwell's equations and electromagnetic waves; Points to note when purchasing or designing antennas.
