Electromagnetic Waves and Radiating Systems By Edward C Jordon

One of the most widely-read texts, this book includes the basic electromagnetic theory & its extension to problems of transmission, radiation & propagation of electeomagnetic waves. The book presents the interaction of field & matter and the relationship between Maxwell\'s electromagnetic theory & Special Relativity. Engineering applications covered are transmission lines, waveguides and antennas (conventional elements, arrays, apertures, frequency-independent and log-periodic structure). Material on freespace, ground wave and ionospheric propagation completes the backkground essentials for the communication engineer.
