Microwave Engineering

This encyclopedic text not only encompasses nearly all facets of microwave engineering, but also gives all topics—including microwave generation, measurement, and processing—equal emphasis. It describes ferrite devices, cavity resonators, semiconductor and RF/microwave devices, and integrated circuits, and discusses different microwave components, antennas, tubes, transistors, diodes, and parametric devices. Complete with illustrations, numerical examples, problems, and references, the book covers everything from wave propagation to reflection and refraction, guided waves, and transmission lines, providing a comprehensive understanding of the underlying principles of microwave engineering.
