(B.Sc.), M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Yugoslavia, in 1988, 1992, and 1995, respectively. From 1996 to 1998, he was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering at the University of Belgrade, and before that, from 1989 to 1996, a Teaching and Research Assistant (faculty position) in the same department. He spent the 1998-1999 academic year as a Research Associate at the University of Colorado at Boulder. He was an Assistant Professor, from 1999 to 2004, and Associate Professor (with Tenure), from 2004 to 2006, in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. He is currently an Associate Professor (with Tenure) of electrical and computer engineering at Colorado State University. Research activities of Prof. Notaroš Trade ReviewThe worked examples are very good and seem to be the anchor for different “concept nuggets.” The examples either demonstrate the use of the mathematics in a very complete manner or model a real-world problem using the principles developed in the previous material. By rereading the material and carefully going over the example, the student will not be intimidated by the one or two questions and problems at the end of the chapter referenced at the end of the section.Table of Contents Chapter 1 Electrostatic Field in Free Space Chapter 2 Dielectrics, Capacitance, and Electric Energy Chapter 3 Steady Electric Currents Chapter 4 Magnetostatic Field in Free Space Chapter 5 Magnetostatic Field in Material Media Chapter 6 Slowly Time-Varying Electromagnetic Field Chapter 7 Inductance and Magnetic Energy Chapter 8 Rapidly Time-Varying Electromagnetic Field Chapter 9 Uniform Plane Electromagnetic Waves Chapter 10 Reflection and Transmission of Plane Waves Chapter 11 Field Analysis of Transmission Lines Chapter 12 Circuit Analysis of Transmission Lines Chapter 13 Waveguides and Cavity Resonators Chapter 14 Antennas and Wireless Communication Systems APPENDICES 1 Quantities, Symbols, Units, and Constants 2 Mathematical Facts and Identities 3 Vector Algebra and Calculus Index 4 Answers to Selected Problems Bibliography Index

Book SynopsisThis book is a comprehensive text on the theory of the magnetic recording process. It gives the reader a fundamental, in-depth understanding of all the essential features of the writing and retrieval of information for both high density disk recording and tape recording. The material is timely because magnetic recording technology is currently undergoing rapid advancement in systems capacity and data rate. The competing technologies of longitudinal and perpendicular recording are given parallel treatments throughout this book. A simultaneous treatment of time and frequency response is given to facilitate assessment of signal processing schemes. In addition to covering basic issues, the author discusses key systems questions of non-linearities and overwrite. The emerging technology of magnetoresisitive heads is analysed separately and three chapters are devoted to various aspects of medium noise.
