Abstract

To fully comprehend radio communications, radar, cell phones, and other electronic communication technologies, one must study antennas and electromagnetic wave propagation. The fundamentals of wave propagation and antennas are covered in this course. Antennas come in many different varieties. It's like trying to lay up a fourth pyramid with a fine paintbrush to study every detail about various types of antennas in books that are overflowing with theoretical concepts. In this book, I focus mostly on the engineering elements and use very little mathematics. Thankfully, antennas may be broadly categorized into seven kinds based on their structure: wire antennas, micro-strip antennas, traveling-wave antennas, reflector antennas, lens antennas, and smart antennas.
