Phased Array Antennas, Second Edition (Repost)

An in-depth treatment of array phenomena and all aspects of phased array analysis and designPhased Array Antennas, Second Edition is a comprehensive reference on the vastly evolving field of array antennas. The Second Edition continues to provide an in-depth evaluation of array phenomena with a new emphasis on developments that have occurred in the field over the past decade. The book offers the same detailed coverage of all practical and theoretical aspects of phased arrays as the first edition, but it now includes: New chapters on array-fed reflector antennas; connected arrays; and reflect arrays and retrodirective arrays Brand-new coverage of artificial magnetic conductors, and Bode matching limitations A clear explanation of the common misunderstanding of scan element pattern measurement, along with appropriate equations In-depth coverage of finite array Gibbsian models, photonic feeding and time delay, waveguide simulators, and beam orthogonality The book is complemented with a multitude of original curves and tables that illustrate how particular behaviors were derived from the author's hundreds of programs developed over the past forty years. Additionally, numerous computer design algorithms and numerical tips are included throughout the book to help aid in readers' comprehension. Phased Array Antennas, Second Edition is an ideal resource for antenna design engineers, radar engineers, PCS engineers, and communications engineers, or any professional who works to develop radar and telecommunications systems. It also serves as a valuable textbook for courses in phased array design and theory at the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels.Content: Chapter 1 Introduction (pages 1–5): Chapter 2 Basic Array Characteristics (pages 7–47): Chapter 3 Linear Array Pattern Synthesis (pages 49–107): Chapter 4 Planar and Circular Array Pattern Synthesis (pages 109–128): Chapter 5 Array Elements (pages 129–169): Chapter 6 Array Feeds (pages 171–219): Chapter 7 Mutual Coupling (pages 221–283): Chapter 8 Finite Arrays (pages 285–315): Chapter 9 Superdirective Arrays (pages 317–342): Chapter 10 Multiple?Beam Antennas (pages 343–397): Chapter 11 Conformal Arrays (pages 399–464): Chapter 12 Connected Arrays (pages 465–477): Chapter 13 Reflectarrays and Retrodirective Arrays (pages 479–495): Chapter 14 Reflectors with Arrays (pages 497–512): Chapter 15 Measurements and Tolerances (pages 513–532):
