Book Synopsis

Detailing the active and passive aspects of microwaves, Microwave Engineering: Concepts and Fundamentals covers everything from wave propagation to reflection and refraction, guided waves, and transmission lines, providing a comprehensive understanding of the underlying principles at the core of microwave engineering. This encyclopedic text not only encompasses nearly all facets of microwave engineering, but also gives all topicsincluding microwave generation, measurement, and processingequal emphasis. Packed with illustrations to aid in comprehension, the book:

  • Describes the mathematical theory of waveguides and ferrite devices, devoting an entire chapter to the Smith chart and its applications
  • Discusses different types of microwave components, antennas, tubes, transistors, diodes, and parametric devices
  • Examines various attributes of cavity resonators, semiconductor and RF/microwave devices, and microwave integrated circuits
  • Addresses s

    Trade Review

    "The book demonstrates a good understanding of the author’s knowledge of microwave engineering. It has extensive practical applications and a wide variety of problems with worked solutions. The book is written in such a way that the reader, through personal study, could achieve a satisfactory education in the subject of microwave engineering."
    —Brian Klaveness, Principal Lecturer and Programme Leader at Glyndwr University, Wrexham, UK

    "... covers everything from wave propagation to reflection and refraction, guided waves, and transmission lines, giving all topics equal emphasis and providing a comprehensive understanding of the underlying principles at the core of microwave engineering. In my opinion, the book is well written and easy to follow, so I am highly recommending it as a textbook for electronics and communication engineering students at the undergraduate level, though it may serve as a solid basis for advanced courses on microwaves at the postgraduate level as well."
