FIELDS AND WAVES IN ELECTROMAGNETIC COMMUNICATIONS

A vital resource that comprehensively covers advanced topics in applied electromagnetics for the professional

Electromagnetism (EM) is a highly abstract and complex subject that examines how exerting a force on charged particles is affected by the presence and motion of adjacent particles. The interdependence of the time varying electric and magnetic fields—one producing the other, and vice versa—has allowed researchers to consider them as a single coherent entity: the electromagnetic field. Under this umbrella, students can learn about numerous and varied topics, such as wireless propagation, satellite communications, microwave technology, EM techniques, antennas, and optics, among many others.

Fields and Waves in Electromagnetic Communications covers advanced topics in applied electromagnetics for the professional by offering a comprehensive textbook that covers the basics of EM to the most advanced topics such as the classical electron theory of matters, the mechanics model and macroscopic model. Specifically, the book provides a welcome all-in-one source on wireless and guided EM that deals in a wide range of subjects: transmission lines, impedance matching techniques, metallic waveguides, resonators, optical waveguides, optical fibres, antennas, antenna arrays, wireless systems, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and more. The content is supported with innovative pedagogy, the most recent reports and working principles of relevant and contemporary technological developments including applications, specialist software tools, laboratory experiments, and innovative design projects.

Fields and Waves in Electromagnetic Communications readers will also find:

• Multiple practical examples, similes and illustrations of interdisciplinary topics related to wireless and guided electromagnetism
• Explanations of new topics with support of basic theories connected to real-world contexts and associated applications
• Sets of technology applications that rely on advanced electromagnetism
• A series of review questions and drills, end-of-chapter problems, and exercises to help enforce what was learned in each chapter

Fields and Waves in Electromagnetic Communications is an ideal textbook for graduate students and senior undergraduates studying telecommunication and wireless communication. It is also a useful resource for industry engineers and members of defense services. Moreover, the book is an excellent non-specialist engineering reference able to be used in other disciplines, such as biomedical engineering, mechatronics, computer science, materials engineering, civil and environmental engineering, physics, network engineering, and wireless services.

Preface

Electromagnetics (EM) deals with the abstract natures of the EM fields and waves and their interactions with matters. It is the most abstract discipline in the entire electrical and electronics engineering field. The theories of EM also influence other fields such as particle and quantum physics, optics and thermodynamics just to name a few. The textbook has presented a holistic approach to the advanced EM (AEM) field and wave theory and modern applications. The uniqueness of the textbook is that each topic is supported by the most recent technological developments, analogies, similes, anecdotes and emerging applications of EM in a novel pedagogy. The chapter outlines of the book are provided in the table. The textbook can be studied for a semester or two in the modern university. The hours that covers the topic in a 12‐ to 14‐week semester are given in the table as well. The hours are indicative.

Experimental learning is the prime to gaining a solid foundation in AEM. Each important abstract theory is supported with many examples, problems, review questions, analogies, and anecdotes from the built environment and nature so that students can correlate the complex AEM processes with such objects, artifacts and natural phenomena. At the same time, such abstract theories are provided with detailed derivations so that a beginning student can understand each step of the developed theory. Therefore, the textbook has both depth and breadth of the covered AEM topics.

In conclusion, the textbook has presented comprehensive AEM materials so that when a student leaves university to pursue his/her career in the field, s/he competently would deal with the design and decision‐making problems related to the technical issues of wireless and guided electromagnetics. This type of AEM knowledge and transferable skills are highly sought after in the modern industry. Therefore, this book provides graduating engineering students and experienced engineers with the enhanced learning experience and outcomes of the most recent and state‐of‐the‐art wireless communications technologies which utilize the AEM discipline.

Finally, prudent feedback from a PhD student on the textbook: Regarding the chapter, the abstract ideologies on electromagnetics were excellently demonstrated with the simple and real‐life examples which I found the most interesting part of reading. Besides, the in‐detail analysis and discussion on the fundamentals were really helpful for the readers. The final integration of the real‐world applications attached to the topics is also very useful and quite relevant to the topic of discussion.

I am pretty much confident that this book will be really helpful in the field of electromagnetics which will directly benefit our groups' present and future students.

I wish you all the best with this book and feel very lucky to assist you in this megaproject. – Shahreen Hasan, PhD student, Monash Microwave, Antenna, RFID and Sensor (MMARS) Laboratory, Monash University, 1 July 2020.

Therefore, the main motto of the textbook is to give the practicing engineers and would‐be practicing engineers advanced knowledge on AEM and skills to solve problems associated with the state‐of‐the‐art applications of AEM. Utmost care has been given and research has been performed to find the emerging and cutting edge applications of the AEM in the range of digital design, signal integrity, biomedical, mining and geoscience, telecommunications, power engineering, electronics, signal processing, antenna technology, RFID, wireless sensors and microwave active and passive design, atmospheric engineering, remote sensing, satellite communications, precision agriculture, food safety and security, climate change, driverless cars, vehicle to vehicle communications, radar engineering, optical communications, defense, reconnaissance, tactical engineering, and optical engineering. These vast applications of AEM and their depictions of fundamental theories enrich the textbook. Not only the university students and educators but all the decision‐making leaders in many government departments and nonprofit organizations (NGOs) would be benefited from the book.
