Summary

Each chapter of Modern Antenna Handbook will be authored by a leading expert(s) and include material of current and future antenna-related technology. The topics covered will represent classical antenna configurations along with advanced topics and associated designs. Material related to antennas, such as metamaterials, will also be reflected in the selected topics. In addition to the antenna topics, seven chapters will be included each related to an advanced numerical/computational method targeted primarily for the analysis and design of antennas.
