"This book is designed to provide an understanding of the behavior of EM fields in radiation, scattering and guided wave environments, from first principles and from low to high frequencies. Physical interpretations of the EM wave phenomena are stressed along with their underlying mathematics. Fundamental principles are stressed, and numerous examples are included to illustrate concepts. This book can facilitate students with a somewhat limited undergraduate EM background to rapidly and systematically advance their understanding of EM wave theory that is useful and important for doing graduate level research on wave EM problems. This book can therefore also be useful for gaining a better understanding of problems they are trying to simulate with commercial EM software and how to better interpret their results. The book can also be used for self-study as a refresher for EM industry professionals"--

Electromagnetic Radiation, Scattering, and Diffraction

Discover a graduate-level text for students specializing in electromagnetic wave radiation, scattering, and diffraction for engineering applications

In Electromagnetic Radiation, Scattering and Diffraction, distinguished authors Drs. Prabhakar H. Pathak and Robert J. Burkholder deliver a thorough exploration of the behavior of electromagnetic fields in radiation, scattering, and guided wave environments. The book tackles its subject from first principles and includes coverage of low and high frequencies. It stresses physical interpretations of the electromagnetic wave phenomena along with their underlying mathematics.

The authors emphasize fundamental principles and provide numerous examples to illustrate the concepts contained within. Students with a limited undergraduate electromagnetic background will rapidly and systematically advance their understanding of electromagnetic wave theory until they can complete useful and important graduate-level work on electromagnetic wave problems.

Electromagnetic Radiation, Scattering and Diffraction also serves as a practical companion for students trying to simulate problems with commercial EM software and trying to better interpret their results. Readers will also benefit from the breadth and depth of topics, such as:

  • Basic equations governing all electromagnetic (EM) phenomena at macroscopic scales are presented systematically. Stationary and relativistic moving boundary conditions are developed. Waves in planar multilayered isotropic and anisotropic media are analyzed.
  • EM theorems are introduced and applied to a variety of useful antenna problems. Modal techniques are presented for analyzing guided wave and periodic structures. Potential theory and Green's function methods are developed to treat interior and exterior EM problems.
  • Asymptotic High Frequency methods are developed for evaluating radiation Integrals to extract ray fields. Edge and surface diffracted ray fields, as well as surface, leaky and lateral wave fields are obtained. A collective ray analysis for finite conformal antenna phased arrays is developed.
  • EM beams are introduced and provide useful basis functions. Integral equations and their numerical solutions via the method of moments are developed. The fast multipole method is presented. Low frequency breakdown is studied. Characteristic modes are discussed.

Perfect for graduate students studying electromagnetic theory, Electromagnetic Radiation, Scattering, and Diffraction is an invaluable resource for professional electromagnetic engineers and researchers working in this area.
