High frequencies of densely packed modern electronic equipment turneven the smallest piece of wire into a transmission line withsignal retardation, dispersion, attenuation, and distortion. Inelectromagnetic environments with high-power microwave orultra-wideband sources, transmission lines pick up noise currentsgenerated by external electromagnetic fields. These aresuperimposed on essential signals, the lines acting not only asreceiving antennas but radiating parts of the signal energy intothe environment.
This book is outstanding in its originality. While manytextbooks rephrase that which has been written before, this bookfeatures:
* an accessible introduction to the fundamentals ofelectromagnetics;
* an explanation of the newest developments in transmission linetheory, featuring the transmission line super theory developed bythe authors;
* a unique exposition of the increasingly popular PEEC (partialelement equivalent circuit) method, including recent researchresults.
Both the Transmission Line Theory and the PEEC method are wellsuited to combine linear structures with circuit networks.
For engineers, researchers, and graduate students, this textbroadens insight into the basics of electrical engineering. Itprovides a deeper understanding of Maxwellian-circuit-likerepresentations of multi-conductor transmission lines, justifiesfuture research in this field.
