Opis

With design optimization as a key focus, this book covers both antenna fundamentals and microstrip antenna. It includes a section on antenna theory that introduces two kinds of elementary linear sources, Huygen’s planar element, and also the analysis and synthesis of the discrete and continuous arrays formed by these elementary sources. In addition, it introduces the digital beam-forming antenna and smart antenna. The section on microstrip antenna discusses the cavity mode theory and also covers some related issues including the design of irregularly shaped patches and the analysis of mutual coupling. With several effective design approaches covered, this book can serve as either a textbook or a self-study book.

Professor Da-Gang Fang graduated from the graduate school of Beijing Institute of Posts and Telecommunications, Beijing, China, in 1966. From 1980 to 1982, he was a visiting scholar at Laval University (Quebec, Canada), and the University of Waterloo (Ontario, Canada). Since 1986, he has been a Professor at the Nanjing University of Science and Technology (NUST), Nanjing, China. Since 1987, he has been a visiting professor at six universities in Canada and in Hong Kong. He has authored and co-authored two books, two book chapters and more than 360 papers. He is also the owner of three patents. His research interests include computational electromagnetics, microwave integrated circuits and antennas and EM scattering. Prof. Fang is a Fellow of IEEE and CIE (Chinese Institute of Electronics), an associate editor of two Chinese journals and is on the Editorial or Review Board of several international and Chinese journals. He was TPC chair of ICMC 1992, vice general chair of PIERS 2004, the member of International Advisory Committee of six international conferences, TPC co-chair of APMC 2005 and general co-chair of ICMMT 2008. He was also the recipient of National Outstanding Teacher Award and People’s Teacher Medal, and the Provincial Outstanding Teacher Award. His name was listed in Marquis Who is Who in the World (1995) and in International Biographical Association Directory (1995).
