This extensively revised and expanded edition of an Artech House bestseller delivers the most up-to-date overview of electronic defense systems. Bringing practitioners up-to-speed with the latest technological advances, the Third Edition details a completely new method of implementing these modern systems. Moreover, this edition is packed with updated illustrations of key assets, including aircraft, ships, and radars.  Readers get a solid understanding of how sophisticated electronic warfare weapon systems work, and how these weapons can be intercepted and electronically jammed. From search and tracking radar, IR systems, and communication systems… to electronic intercept systems, countermeasures, and counter-countermeasures, the book explores a broad spectrum of defense equipment. It explains how these systems operate, the advantages and drawbacks of each system, and the theories on which these systems are based. This authoritative resource includes 180 illustrations and 400 equations that support key topics throughout the book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first edition of the classic, Introduction to Electronic Defense Systems, was published in 1991, the second in 2006 and this, the 3rd, in 2018, thus clearly demonstrating the point author Filippo Neri makes about the increasing pace and impressive evolution of such technologies. The 3rd edition continues the pattern established in the earlier editions with the initial chapter providing an expanded overview of electronic defense systems and new concepts, threats and opportunities including cyber and Cyber Electromagnetic Activities. As such these 36 pages provide the context to understand the technological issues in the remaining 7 Chapters. Not unexpectedly, these are sometimes necessarily brief introductions to complex issues. However, besides providing context for what follows, they serve to whet the appetite of the reader and encourage further study. The up-to-date and comprehensive references complement this process well. The chapter running order is Electronic Defense; Sensors; Weapon Systems; Electronic Intercept Systems, Electronic Countermeasure Systems; Electronic Counter-Countermeasure Systems; New Electronic Defense Techniques and Technologies, and Design and Evaluation Criteria. The author notes that formulas and mathematical theory have been reduced to a minimum; that may well have been the intent but the 3rd edition includes 180 illustrations and around 400 equations! The book remains very readable throughout, with excellent diagrams and explanations of everything covered by a true master in the field and a great communicator. As mentioned, the structure of the 3rd edition follows that of the 2nd edition with additional material on new concepts and materials e.g. Artificial Intelligence and Gallium Nitride, to name just two. The 3rd edition is an evolution of the early editions and that makes perfect sense. The new edition is primarily aimed at those who are entering the world of Electronic Systems (Electronic Warfare, Signals Intelligence, CEMA, ISR, Navigation and NAVWAR, etc.) in a technical sense and deserves a place in everyone's personal library and in the industry. Given the accelerating pace of innovation, global threats and opportunities, there is likely to be an increasing audience for this book and others like it, covering warfare in the Electromagnetic manoeuvre warfare space, or EME \/ EM Domain. As the name implies, the book uses US terminology which diverged from NATO terminology some 25 years ago, but remained broadly comparable. However that changed very significantly in 2007 when the NATO Military Committee signed off a document on the future transformation of NATO Electronic Warfare (MCM-0142 27 Nov 2007); the major thrust of the new policy and concept was to recognise the Electromagnetic Environment (EME) as an operational environment or domain like all the others (Land, Air Maritime, etc) where the full range of manoeuvre activities - offence, defence, shaping, exploitation, management, etc. – take place. Provided the non-US NATO, and potentially other, reader understands this, Introduction to Electronic Defense Systems is an invaluable and outstanding guide and technical handbook. It is an ideal introduction for those who are starting in the field as system designers; to users and potential users, and to all concerned now or in the next decade in the procurement of such systems. These are exactly the target audiences identified in the Author's Preface. The author concludes the Preface with a wish that readers will find the book useful. I have no doubt that readers will in fact find the book invaluable and essential reading to help them for many years in making progress in their chosen careers. -- John Clifford * Wing Commander OBE MBCS CEng CITP RAF (Retd) *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eElectronic Defense.

It treats the subject in a unified manner, providing numerical methods and design examples. The specific focus is on continuum design sensitivity analysis, which offers significant advantages over discrete design sensitivity methods. Continuum design sensitivity formulas are derived from the material derivative in continuum mechanics and the variational form of the governing equation. Continuum sensitivity analysis is applied to Maxwell equations of electrostatic, magnetostatic and eddy-current systems, and then the sensitivity formulas for each system are derived in a closed form; an integration along the design interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book also introduces the recent breakthrough of the topology optimization method, which is accomplished by coupling the level set method and continuum design sensitivity. This topology optimization method enhances the possibility of the global minimum with minimised computational time, and in addition the evolving shapes during the iterative design process are easily captured in the level set equation. Moreover, since the optimization algorithm is transformed into a well-known transient analysis algorithm for differential equations, its numerical implementation becomes very simple and convenient.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Despite the complex derivation processes and mathematical expressions, the obtained sensitivity formulas are very straightforward for numerical implementation.

The rest of the book is based on original results obtained by the author from 1994 to 2014 and reflected, in particular, in English-language conference and journal publications (ISLPD, ICCAD, ED\u0026amp;TC, ISQED, DATE, ACM transactions, etc.), and also in multiple publications in Russian. This manuscript is divided into two parts: Chapters One through Five discuss the theory and applications of decision diagrams, while Chapters Six through Nine concentrate on the theory and applications of logic correlations between circuit signals. Chapter Five contains the results on the BDD of a special type (SP-BDD) and their applications to analysis and optimization of digital CMOS circuits. The second part contains the results on theory and applications of logic correlations between circuit signals (logic implications). The following applications are considered: noise analysis of digital circuits (both functional and delay noise), timing analysis with detecting false paths, and digital circuit obfuscation. Chapter Nine explains the use of TDD (Ternary Decision Diagrams) in digital CMOS simulation with uncertaintyin particular, with power simulationand both with and without accounting for logic implications. The principal audiences for the book are mathematicians and software developers, primarily working in microelectronics CAD.","brand":"Nova Science Publishers Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887221748055,"sku":"9781634842488","price":148.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781634842488.jpg?v=1722543568"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/collections\/electronics-engineering.oembed?page=30","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
