Phased Array Antennas: Floquet Analysis, Synthesis, BFNs and Active Array Systems

Latest research and applications of analytical models and designs of phased array antennas and systemsPhased Array Antennas presents precise analytical models and designs of phased array antennas and systems in a logical and comprehensive manner starting from fundamental principles of phased array radiation. Numerous relevant and practical design examples and detailed derivations of theorems and concepts are included to make the book as self-contained as possible. This new edition includes information on recent developments in the phased array arena published in journals and conference proceedings, a chapter devoted to metamaterial analysis from fundamental principles of electromagnetism, and the most updated phased array structures and beam formers. The book is divided into three sections. The first section is mostly devoted to the development of the Floquet model-based approach for infinite and finite phased arrays. This section begins with an introduction of the traditional approach
