✦ Synopsis

This comprehensive revision is a senior undergraduate or first-year graduate level textbook on antenna fundamentals, design, performance analysis, and measurements. In addition to its use as a formal course textbook, it is well-suited for professional training and self-study by practicing engineers, scientists, and technologists who desire to expand their knowledge of antennas. The book provides a broad coverage of antenna types and phenomena, for operations at very low radio frequencies, as well as frequencies up to those of submillimeter wavelengths. Unlike most university-level antenna textbooks, reading it does not require prior skills in electromagnetic theory, sophisticated mathematics, or computer programming.
