Book Description
First developed in 1937 to help
improve communication links between the United States and the United
Kingdom, phased arrays have evolved far beyond their original purpose.
In addition to their value in radio communications, phased arrays
are now a vital component in national defense, space exploration,
astronomy, and electronic warfare.
Phased Array-Based Systems and Applications was written for researchers
and engineers with a professional interest in phased array-based
systems. Timely, authoritative, and comprehensive, it discusses
the most current uses of phased arrays (operating at cm and mm wavelengths)
in radar, radio astronomy, remote sensing, electronic warfare, spectrum
surveillance, and communications. This exploration of systems that
share the same principles and perform similar functions helps phased
array users in all these fields learn more about the systems and
applications in which they specialize. More important, the complementary
nature of a variety of sensors is emphasized throughout the book.
While his consistent focus is on practical applications, the author
also provides generous coverage of basic theoretical principles
to help readers understand the systems trade-offs made in the design
of various phased arrays.
An indispensable professional resource for radar and antenna engineers,
Phased Array-Based Systems and Applications is also a superior graduate-level
text for students in these fields.
