CONTENIDO:

Microwave systems are an important medium for radar and communications. This book provide an authoritative account of the field, balancing theoretical principles and practical applications. After initial surveys of wave propagation on transmission lines and waveguides and in free space, chapters are devoted to the various components involved in a microwave system: antennas, power sources, waveguide components, amplifiers and receivers. Further chapters describe the principal features of systems in common use for radar and communications, illustrated by reference to specific practical systems. A final chapter considers methods of measurement at microwave frequencies. The book will be appropriate for students of Electronic Engineering and for professional engineers who require a comprehensive account of microwave technology. Mathematical prerequisites are kept to a minimum. Exercises with solution guidelines are included as an aid to understanding. K F Sanderis Emeritus Professor of Electronic Engineering at the University of Bristol, and brings to this book a wealth of teaching and research experience. "I have been very impressed with the book; it will be a very useful addition to the literature for final year undergraduates and postgraduate students, and for research and development engineers entering this field of work for the first time."- Professor A L Cullen, University College, London.
