This book has been designed for both the undergraduates and the postgraduates in electronic engineering, electrical communication engineering and electrical engineering, and for the postgraduate in physics specialising in electronics. It is a compact and comprehensive text and it stresses the basic principles of Antenna Theory and Practice. Starting with electromagnetics and the theory of radiation, which forms the basis of Antenna Theory, it treats in detail different types of antennas like the linear antenna, the cylindrical antenna, the biconical antenna, the loop antenna, the helical antenna, slot and microstrip antennas, horn antennas, reflector antennas, lens antennas, leaky, wave and surface-wave antennas including dielectric and dielectric loaded antennas, wide band antennas and some modern special types of antennas. There are also chapters on antenna synthesis, antenna practice, antenna measurements and electromagnetic wave propagation. The detailed coverage of electromagnetic theory enables the student to understand the theoretical aspects with comparative ease. The chapters on antenna synthesis, antenna practice and antenna measurements are useful for the practical antenna engineer.
The problems at the end of chapters, tables and numerous illustrations add to the value of the text. In this second edition, a new chapter on Antenna Impedance and some solved problems have been added. The book presupposes only the knowledge of mathematics which a student of undergraduate engineering or undergraduate physics has required. ISBN 9788122408812
