The text begins by covering different types of practical antenna design and analysis such as microstrip, metamaterials, dielectric resonator, and substrate integrated waveguide. It further discusses techniques to design several types of practical antennas for diverse types of applications such as single band, narrowband, and multiband.
This book covers both transmitters and receivers of modern microwave devices designed for a wide range of practical applications. It focuses on different types of antennas, filters, amplifiers, and oscillators and their optimization techniques for the design of networks which are most useful in modern communication systems such as the Internet of Things, remote sensing, and space applications.• Focuses on specific applications of microwave device design such as body-centric networks, wearable, implantable, and internet of medical things.• Covers the design and implementation of the defense networks and discusses the application of RADAR optimization algorithms.• Presents advanced topics such as the integration of machine learning, and artificial intelligence for designing microwave devices.• Examines modern microwave devices for next-generation communication systems, such as 5G and beyond, satellites, and RADAR applications.• Explains the implementation and challenges for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), ground-penetrating radar (GPR), and remote sensing applications (RSA) on aerial platforms.The text is primarily written for senior undergraduates, graduate students, and academic researchers in the fields including electrical engineering, electronics and communication engineering, computer science and engineering, and telecommunications.
