Summary
Microwave Engineering: Fundamentals, Design and Applications emphasizes 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 Indian 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—meta materials, • review questions that help in self-assessment, and • ‘recapitulation’ that serves to reinforce the fundamentals contained in the chapter.
