Detailing the active and passive aspects of microwaves, Microwave Engineering: Concepts and Fundamentals covers everything from wave propagation to reflection and refraction, guided waves, and transmission lines, providing a comprehensive understanding of the underlying principles at the core of microwave engineering. This encyclopedic text not only encompasses nearly all facets of microwave engineering, but also gives all topics-including microwave generation, measurement, and processing-equal emphasis. Packed with illustrations to aid in comprehension, the book:

• Describes the mathematical theory of waveguides and ferrite devices, devoting an entire chapter to the Smith chart and its applications
• Discusses different types of microwave components, antennas, tubes, transistors, diodes, and parametric devices
• Examines various attributes of cavity resonators, semiconductor and RF/microwave devices, and microwave integrated circuits
• Addresses scattering parameters and their properties, as well as planar structures including striplines and microstrips
• Considers the limitations of conventional tubes, behavior of charged particles in different fields, and the concept of velocity modulation

Based on the author's own class notes, Microwave Engineering: Concepts and Fundamentals consists of 16 chapters featuring homework problems, references, and numerical examples. PowerPoint (R) slides and MATLAB (R)-based solutions are available with qualifying course adoption.
