DESCRIPTION:
This book will be the definitive reference on phased arrays. From the Publisher Phased array antennas have many important applications, including radar uses in airport surveillance and missile detection and tracking, as well as applications in personal communication systems and in satellite communications. . It is written from the standpoint of a practicing design engineer, but with the analytical and theoretical understanding to provide an in-depth evaluation of array phenomena and all aspects of phased array analysis and design
flawed update of a classic it This book is riddled with errors. You can do a web search for the author and title to get the author's web page with two pages of corrections.The book is a follow on for the authors older book Scanning Microwave Antennas. The new book has fewer pages and therefore leaves much of the older book out. It does contain new material though.I would suggest buying the older book first (available used here on Amazon) and on. "Could be a lot better" according to A Customer. The only way to really get any use out of this book is to read the papers that it uses as references. Most of the equations have been copied incorrectly from the original papers, and many of the key variables are never defined in the text of the book. Overall, it was pretty frustrating to try to use as a textbook. In my phased array antenna class, we invariably had to find the IEEE papers used as references and rea
He is a Fellow of the IEEE and IEE and is a member of the National Academy of Engineering. Since beginning his career in 1949, he held key posts in a number of leading aerospace companies, including Aerospace Corp., STL, Inc. Hansen, PhD, DEng, has had a long and distinguished career in the aerospace industry. . Robert C. Additionally, Dr. (now TRW), and Hughes Aircraft Co. Hansen has been a consulting engineer for antennas and systems-related proble
Additionally, numerous computer design algorithms and numerical tips are included throughout the book to help aid in readers' comprehension. It also serves as a valuable textbook for courses in phased array design and theory at the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels.. The Second Edition continues to provide an in-depth evaluation of array phenomena with a new emphasis on developments that have occurred in the field over the past decade. The book offers the same detailed coverage of all practical and theoretical aspects of phased arrays as the first edition, but it now includes:New chapters on array-fed reflector antennas; connected arrays; and reflect arrays and retrodirective arraysBrand-new coverage of artificial magnetic conductors, and Bode matching limitationsA clear explanation of the common misunderstanding of scan element pattern measurement, along with appropriate equationsIn-depth coverage of finite array Gibbsian models, photonic feeding and time delay, waveguide simulators, and beam orthogonalityThe book is complemented with a multitude of original curves and tables that illustrate how particular behaviors were derived from the author's hundreds of programs developed over the past forty years. An in-depth treatment of array phenomena and all aspects of phased ar
