Electromagnetic Field Theory aims to give a solid foundation on electromagnetic fields, waves, and radiating systems. It is targeted as a textbook for electromagnetic field theory course for undergraduate electronics engineering students. Besides strong fundamentals on Maxwell's equations, this book provides in-depth discussion about the basics of electromagnetic waves (wireless communication channel modeling requires this knowledge), transmission lines (microwave engineering course requires a background of this topic), and antennas (antenna is a component of any communication system; any communication cannot happen without this). Key Features 1.Detailed mathematical derivations of many of the important concepts in EMFT with all steps clearly explained. 2.Easier revision of each of the chapters using the chapter in a nutshell technique: one/two diagrams to represent all the important formulas in the chapter. 3.Excellent pedagogy includes more than 50 solved examples, 200 review questions, and 100 exercise problems. 4.Computational electromagnetics has been considered as an integral part of EMFT and has been discussed in some depth (representative MATLAB programs provided). 5.Method of moments has been treated as a separate chapter, and finite-difference time-domain method has been discussed in an Appendix. 6.Brief introduction to advanced topics at the appropriate places with some important and exclusive coverage of topics such as Smith charts, antennas, and method of moments Table of Contents 1.Introduction 2.Electrostatic Fields 3.Magnetostatic Fields 4.Electrodynamic Fields 5.Plane Electromagnetic Waves 6.Plane Waves Reflection from Media Interface 7.Transmission Line Analysis 8.Antennas and Radiating Systems 9.Waveguide, Cavity, and Microstrip Antennas 10.Method of Moments Appendix A: Finite-Difference Time-Domain Appendix B: Electromagnetic Field Theory in a Nutshell
