'About this title' may belong to another edition of this title.
The book exposes its readers to a considerable array of mathematical tools as well, ranging from orthogonal function expansions to perturbation techniques and duality, but physical intuition and approximate problem-solving techniques are also emphasized.
Figures (d) and (e) show more elaborate configurations, demonstrating that wire antennas do not have to lie in a. Electromagnetic Waves also makes connections between electromagnetics and simple equivalent circuit models wherever possible. Figure 11.2.2 (c) illustrates how the peak currents can be made different in the two arms note that the currents fed to the two arms must be equal and opposite, and this fact forces the two peak currents in the arms to differ. Successive chapters move from simple wave propagation in unbounded free space to the complexities of resonator and antenna design, revisiting basic concepts as each new topic is introduced. It emphasizes basic concepts from both a physical and mathematical perspective. This book provides thorough explanations and relevant, modern examples so that students and practicing engineers will find it a useful reference as well as a tool for self-teaching.
Morgenthaler, and Jin Au Kong saw a need for a book presenting electromagnetic theory and applications in a clear, compact, and 'user-friendly' manner relying only on basic physics and mathematics.
