Market_Desc: · Intended for a Senior Level Course to follow Introduction to Electromagnetics Special Features: · New material in the optics chapter· New material in the Microwave Networks and Resonator chapters · Added material on design methodologies and numerical methods · New problems in each chapter · Updating of references About The Book: The text helps define the second electromagnetic course that electrical engineers take in their senior year. This rigorous book on engineering electromagnetic fields and waves topics is packed with useful derivations and applications.

This textbook is intended for a course in electromagnetism for upper undergraduate and graduate students. The main concepts and laws of classical macroscopic electrodynamics and initial information about generalized laws of modern electromagnetics are discussed, explaining some paradoxes of the modern theory. The reader then gets acquainted with electrodynamics methods of field analysis on the basis of wave equation solution. Emission physics are considered using an example of the Huygens-Fresnel-Kirchhoff canonic principle. The representation about strict electrodynamics task statement on the base of Maxwell equations, boundary conditions, emission conditions and the condition on the edge is given. Different classes of approximate boundary conditions are presented, which essentially simplify understanding of process physics. The canonic Fresnel functions are given and their generalization on the case of anisotropic impedance. The free waves in closed waveguides and in strip-slotted and edge-dielectric transmission lines are described. A large number of Mathcad programs for illustration of field patterns and its properties in different guiding structures are provided. The material is organized for self-study as well as classroom use.

The latest edition of Electromagnetic Fields and Waves retains an authoritative, balanced approach, in-depth coverage, extensive analysis, and use of computational techniques to provide a complete understanding of electromagnetic important to all electrical engineering students. An essential feature of this innovative text is the early introduction of Maxwell's equations, together with the quantifying experimental observations made by the pioneers who discovered electromagnetics. This approach directly links the mathematical relations in Maxwell's equations to real experiments and facilitates a fundamental understanding of wave propagation and use in modern practical applications, especially in today's wireless world. New and expanded topics include the conceptual relationship between Coulomb's law and Gauss's law for calculating electric fields, the relationship between Biot-Savart's and Ampere's laws and their use in calculating magnetic fields from current sources, the development of Faraday's law from experimental observations, and a comprehensive discussion and analysis of the displacement current term that unified the laws of electromagnetism. The text also includes sections on computational techniques in electromagnetics and applications in electrostatics, in transmission lines, and in wire antenna designs. The antennas chapter has been substantially broadened in scope; it now can be used as a stand-alone text in an introductory antennas course. Advantageous pedagogical features appear in every chapter: examples that illustrate key topics and ask the reader to render a solution to a question or problem posed; an abundant number of detailed figures and diagrams, enabling a visual interpretation of the developed mathematical equations; and multiple review questions and problems designed to strengthen and accelerate the learning process. Helpful material is included in six appendices, including answers to selected problems. Unlike other introductory texts, Electromagnetic Fields and Waves does not bog readers down with equations and mathematical relations. Instead, it focuses on the fundamental understanding and exciting applications of electromagnetics.
