CD-ROM contains: Demonstration exercises -- Complete solutions -- Problem statements.

STUDENT COMPANION SITE Every new copy of Stuart Wentworth's Applied Electromagnetics comes with a registration code which allows access to the Student's Book Companion Site. On the BCS the student will find: * Detailed Solutions to Odd-Numbered Problems in the text * Detailed Solutions to all Drill Problems from the text * MATLAB code for all the MATLAB examples in the text * Additional MATLAB demonstrations with code. This includes a Transmission Lines simulator created by the author. * Weblinks to a vast array of resources for the engineering student. Go to www.wiley.com/college/wentworth to link to Applied Electromagnetics and the Student Companion Site. ABOUT THE PHOTO Passive RFID systems, consisting of readers and tags, are expected to replace bar codes as the primary means of identification, inventory and billing of everyday items. The tags typically consist of an RFID chip placed on a flexible film containing a planar antenna. The antenna captures radiation from the reader's signal to power the tag electronics, which then responds to the reader's query. The PENI Tag (Product Emitting Numbering Identification Tag) shown, developed by the University of Pittsburgh in a team led by Professor Marlin H. Mickle, integrates the antenna with the rest of the tag electronics. RFID systems involve many electomagnetics concepts, including antennas, radiation, transmission lines, and microwave circuit components. (Photo courtesy of Marlin H. Mickle.)

Applied Electromagnetics and Electromagnetic Compatibility deals with Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), which is the reception of undesired radio signals originating from digital electronics and electronic equipment. With today's rapid development of radio communication, these undesired signals as well as signals due to natural phenomena such as lightning, sparking, and others are becoming increasingly important in the general area of Electro Magnetic Compatibility (EMC). EMC can be defined as the capability of some electronic equipment or system to be operated at desired levels of performance in a given electromagnetic environment without generating EM emissions unacceptable to other systems operating in the vicinity.

Accompanying CD-ROM contains a MATLAB tutorial.

Analytical Modeling in Applied Electromagnets encompasses the most complete treatment on the subject published to date, focusing on the nature of models in radio engineering. This leading-edge resource brings you detailed coverage of the latest topics, including metamaterials, photonic bandgaps and artificial impedance surfaces, and applies these concepts to a wide range of applications. The book provides you with working examples that are mainly directed to antenna applications, but the modeling methods and results can be used for other practical devices as well.

Modern technology is rapidly developing and for this reason future engineers need to acquire advanced knowledge in science and technology, including electromagnetic phenomena. This book is a contemporary text of a one-semester course for junior electrical engineering students. It covers a broad spectrum of electromagnetic phenomena such as, surface waves, plasmas, photonic crystals, negative refraction as well as related materials including superconductors. In addition, the text brings together electromagnetism and optics as the majority of texts discuss electromagnetism disconnected from optics. In contrast, in this book both are discussed. Seven labs have been developed to accompany the material of the book.
