Book description
Offers an up-to-date description of modern multifunctional antenna
systems and microwave components
Compact multifunctional antennas are of great interest in the field
of antennas and wireless communication systems, but there are few, if
any, books available that fully explore the multifunctional concept.
Divided into six chapters, Compact Multifunctional Antennas for
Wireless Systems encompasses both the active and passive
multifunctional antennas and components for microwave systems. It
provides a systematic, valuable reference for antenna/microwave
researchers and designers.
Beginning with such novel passive components as antenna filters,
antenna packaging covers, and balun filters, the book discusses
various miniaturization techniques for the multifunctional antenna
systems. In addition to amplifying and oscillating antennas, the book
also covers design considerations for frequency- and
pattern-reconfigurable antennas. The last chapter is dedicated to the
field of solar cell integrated antennas.
Inside, readers will find comprehensive chapters on:
-
Compact Multifunctional Antennas in Microwave Wireless Systems
-
Multifunctional Passive Integrated Antennas and Components
-
Reconfigurable Antennas
-
Receiving Amplifying Antennas
-
Oscillating Antennas
-
Solar cell integrated Antennas
Aimed at professional engineers and researchers designing compact
antennas for wireless applications, Compact Multifunctional
Antennas for Wireless Systems will prove to be an invaluable tool.
