Microwave Engineering: Fundamentals, Design and Applications

Microwave Engineering: Fundamentals, Design and Applications emphasises the basic concepts of microwave engineering, design techniques and applications of microwave engineering in a markedly different way. This inclusive approach covers the undergraduate syllabus of almost all institutions where microwave engineering is taught and to some extent a part of the postgraduate curriculum too. The student-friendly nature of the book is strengthened by:  

•  CAD solutions with standard simulators used for optimal design of matching networks and filters,

•  an exclusive chapter on Waveguides and Resonators,  

•  simulation based design of microwave oscillators and amplifiers,  

•  basics of microwave measurement techniques and fundamentals of spectrum analyser and network analyser, 

•  a chapter on Radar Principle and Systems, 

•  concise coverage of EMI-EMC and microwave antennae, 

•  Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools and 3D electromagnetic field simulators used to solve a number of design problems, 

•  use of MATLAB in generating characteristic curves and solving problems, 

•  coverage of an emerging topic of microwave engineering—metamaterials,

•  review questions that help in self-assessment, and 

• ‘recapitulation’ that serves to reinforce the fundamentals contained in the chapter. For additional material, please visit http://www.universitiespress.com/subalkar/mwe
