This book presents a simple and systematic description of EM design of antenna arrays. This book includes the EM design and performance analysis of printed dipole arrays on planar and cylindrical substrates. The book explains fundamentals of EM design and analysis of dipole antenna array through numerous illustrations.

In practical phased array, one cannot ignore the finite dimensions of antenna elements, coupling effect and the role of feed network while estimating the antenna RCS.

This book focuses on determination of scattering of parallel-fed planar dipole arrays in terms of reflection and transmission coefficients at different levels of the array system. The planar dipole array is considered as a stacked linear dipole array.

In this book, the RCS of a parallel-fed linear and planar dipole array is derived using an approximate method. The signal propagation within the phased array system determines the radar cross section (RCS) of phased array. A phased array system comprises of radiating elements followed by phase shifters, couplers, and terminating load impedance.

This book presents a comprehensive review of plasma-based stealth, covering the basics, methods, parametric analysis, and challenges towards the realization of the idea. The book starts with the basics of EM wave interactions with plasma, briefly discuss the methods used to analyze the propagation characteristics of plasma, and its generation.

This book presents electromagnetic (EM) design and analysis of dipole antenna array over high impedance substrate (HIS). It includes pictorial description of both planar and non-planar array design and the detailed discussion of the performance analysis of HIS-based planar and non-planar antenna array.

This book presents the detailed analytical formulation for the RCS of parallel-fed linear dipole array in the presence of mutual coupling. This book explains each step of the RCS estimation and analysis of dipole array with detailed schematics, tables and illustrations.

In this book, a modified improved LMS algorithm is employed for weight adaptation of dipole array for the generation of beam pattern in multiple signal environments. The concepts in this book are discussed in an easy-to-understand manner, making it suitable even for the beginners in the field of phased arrays and adaptive array processing.

The role of plasma parameters, such as electron density, collision frequency, plasma thickness, and plasma density profile in the absorption behavior of multi-layered plasma-RAM structure is described.

This book considers a cylindrical phased array with microstrip patch antenna elements and half-wavelength dipole antenna elements. It is shown that array along with adaptive algorithm is able to cater to an arbitrary signal environment even when the platform effect and mutual coupling is taken into account.
