Planar Antennas for
Wireless Communications
Microstrip planar antennas are the new generation of antennas due to
their attractive features including: low profile, light weight, low cost
and ease of integration into arrays. These antennas are important
components of modern communications sytems particularly in cellular and
wireless applications. Many novel designs of planar antennas for related
applications such as dual-band or multi-band internal mobile phone
antennas (PIFAs and very-low-profile planar monopoles), base-station
antennas for cellular and WLAN systems, small WLAN or bluetooth antennas
for mobile terminals, etc. have been reported very recently, especially
after 2000...

Antenna and EM Modeling
with MATLAB
Doubling as a textbook and programming manual, this volume provides
the basic background in electromagnet theory and describes the benefits of
MATLAB software. It explains how MATLAB solves basic radiation/scattering
antenna problems in a variety of systems, discusses specialized antenna
types, and considers MATLAB applications to problems with broadband and
loaded antennas, UWB pulse antennas, and microstrip antenna arrays. An
accompanying CD- ROM contains MATLAB codes and antenna geometry files.

Third-Generation Systems
and Intelligent Wireless Networking: Smart Antennas and Adaptive
Modulation
Within the ITU, third generation mobile systems are called
International Mobile Telephony 2000 (IMT 2000). All intelligent networking
(IN) for telecommunications involves the concept of a distributed
intelligence wherein a database is queried for information necessary for
call processing. The reasons for deploying mobile IN technologies are to
provide value-added capabilities for purposes such as cost reduction,
improved service delivery, increased variety and quality of services, and
rapid service creation and deployment.

Compact and Broadband
Microstrip Antennas
A tremendous amount of work has been done since 1997 to improve
microstrip antennas in portable communication equipment. To meet the
demand for an updated, single-source design reference on these recent
advances, Compact and Broadband Microstrip Antennas presents over 100
advanced microstrip antenna designs and their complex experimental
results. These new advanced designs are catalogued in a quick-reference
format, unique to this book, through a reorganization of antenna types
into two groups: compact microstrip antennas and broadband microstrip
antennas.

Antennas
This is an exciting revision of John Kraus' classic book Antennas,which
has been long known as the "Antenna Bible". A new
co-author,Ronald Marhefka has joined the author team for this revison.
Many new,modern applications have been added-thus the title change to
Antennas with All Applications. As well,the references have been updated
to include recent additons to the literature.
Additionally,the book has been reorganized to make it more
user-friendly for both students and professionals. The book now covers the
fundamentals of various antennas and concepts in the first half of the
book and then gets into more details on those same topics later in the
book. This allows a one-semester course to just cover the fundamentals if
desired,and a professional to focus on advanced topics if he or she wants.

Fundamentals of Antennas:
Concepts and Applications
Seven chapters comprise a tutorial on how antennas work and how they
can be used at different frequencies ranging from radio to terahertz. It's
intended for students, engineers, and researchers who have not taken a
formal antenna course but are interested in the basics of antenna theory
and operation. Covers antenna history and applications; fundamental
parameters; wire antennas; antenna arrays; types of antennas; antennas for
infrared detectors; and antenna measurements.

Microstrip Antenna Design
Handbook
Based on Bahl and Bhartia's popular 1980 classic, Microstrip
Antennas, this all new book provides the detail antenna engineers and
designers need to design any type of microstrip antenna. After addressing
essential microchip antenna theory, the authors highlight current design
and engineering practices, emphasizing the most pressing issues in this
area, including broadbanding, circular polarization, and active microstrip
antennas in particular. Special design challenges, ranging from dual
polarization, high bandwidth, and surface wave mitigation, to choosing the
proper substrate, and shaping an antenna to achieve desired results are
all covered.

Antennas and Propagation
for Wireless Communication Systems
Presenting a complete reference to the basic concepts and design of
wireless systems, this book focuses on the two key factors influencing the
physical transmission aspect of wireless communications, namely antenna
design and signal propagation. The author clearly explains concepts and
processes, using specific examples and illustrations of observed
phenomena. Coverage includes antennas, propagation, channel modelling, and
overcoming channel impairments as well as statistics, probability, and
stochastic processes.
