Modern Small Antennas

If you are involved in designing and developing small antennas, this complete cutting-edge guide covers everything you need to know. From fundamentals and basic theory to design optimization, evaluation, measurements and simulation techniques, all the essential information is included. You will also get many practical examples from a range of wireless systems, whilst a glossary is provided to bring you up to speed on the latest terminology. A wide variety of small antennas is covered, and design and practice steps are described for each type: electrically small, functionally small, physically constrained small and physically small. Whether you are a professional in industry, a researcher, or a graduate student, this is your essential guide to small antennas. 'At last: an approachable book addressing small antennas and their design ... This book addresses the very important area of small antennas with both the theory and a lot of useful practical design information ... Modern Small Antennas helps by providing not only the background theory, but also the practical implementation including: basic theory and fundamentals; design optimization; evaluation; measurements; and simulation techniques.'
