Phased Array Antennas, Second Edition is a comprehensive reference on the vastly evolving field of array antennas. The Second Edition continues to provide an in-depth evaluation of array phenomena with a new emphasis on developments that have occurred in the field over the past decade. The book offers the same detailed coverage of all practical and theoretical aspects of phased arrays as the first edition, but it now includes:
*New chapters on array-fed reflector antennas connected arrays and reflect arrays and retrodirective arrays
*Brand-new coverage of artificial magnetic conductors, and Bode matching limitations
*A clear explanation of the common misunderstanding of scan element pattern measurement, along with appropriate equations
*In-depth coverage of finite array Gibbsian models, photonic feeding and time delay, waveguide simulators, and beam orthogonality
The book is complemented with a multitude of original curves and tables that illustrate how particular behaviors were derived from the authors hundreds of programs developed over the past forty years. Additionally, numerous computer design algorithms and numerical tips are included throughout the book to help aid in readers comprehension.
