Features vital data on all the primary antenna types and includes in-depth coverage of the design techniques and operating principles involved. The scope is broad from arrays of discrete elements to conformal and low-profile arrays, from methods of polarization synthesis to microwave propagation, and from dipoles and monopoles to impedance matching and broadbanding. The first edition, published in 1961, was edited by Henry Jasik. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
