Ultra-Wideband Antennas and Propagation for Communications, Radar and Imaging
內容描述
Description
Providing up-to-date material for UWB
antennas and propagation as used in a wide variety of applications,
"Ultra-wideband Antennas and Propagation for Communications, Radar and
Imaging" includes fundamental theory, practical design information and
extensive discussion of UWB applications from biomedical imaging, through to
radar and wireless communications.
An in-depth treatment of ultra-wideband signals in practical environments
is given, including interference, coexistence and diversity
considerations. The text includes antennas and propagation in biological
media in addition to more conventional environments. The topics covered are
approached with the aim of helping practising engineers to view the subject
from a different angle, and to consider items as variables that were treated
as constants in narrowband and wideband systems.
Features tables of propagation data, photographs of antenna systems and
graphs of results (e.g. radiation patterns, propagation characteristics)
Covers the fundamentals of antennas and propagation, as well as offering
an in-depth treatment of antenna elements and arrays for UWB systems, and
UWB propagation models
Provides a description of the underlying concepts for the design of
antennas and arrays for conventional as well as ultra-wideband systems
Draws together UWB theory by using case-studies to show applications of
antennas and propagation in communication, radar and imaging systems
The book highlights the unique design issues of using ultra-wideband and
will serve both as an introductory text and a reference guide for designers
and students alike.
