More About This Title Radiating Nonuniform Transmission-Lines and thePartial Element Equivalent Circuit Method
English
This book is outstanding in its originality. While many textbooks rephrase that which has been written before, this book features:
* an accessible introduction to the fundamentals of electromagnetics;
* an explanation of the newest developments in transmission line theory, featuring the transmission line super theory developed by the authors;
* a unique exposition of the increasingly popular PEEC (partial element equivalent circuit) method, including recent research results.
Both the Transmission Line Theory and the PEEC method are well suited to combine linear structures with circuit networks.
For engineers, researchers, and graduate students, this text broadens insight into the basics of electrical engineering. It provides a deeper understanding of Maxwellian-circuit-like representations of multi-conductor transmission lines, justifies future research in this field.
