Fundamentals of Electromagnetics with Engineering Applications

Explore the electromagnetic principles at work in today's wireless systems Without electromagnetics, the explosive growth of today's cutting-edge wireless systems would simply not be possible. In fact, the circuits, antennas, and signal transmission in wireless systems all depend on electromagnetic principles. That's why engineers with a background in electromagnetics are in high demand. Stuart Wentworth's Fundamentals of Electromagnetics with Engineering Applications will help you develop a solid foundation in this exciting field. The text eases you into electromagnetics and vector algebra, beginning with electrostatic fields. Once you've mastered these fundamentals, you'll move on to such topics as magnetostatic fields, Maxwell's equations, and plane wave propagation. Finally, you'll have the opportunity to explore such fascinating applications as transmission lines, antennas, waveguide, electromagnetic interference, and microwave engineering. Key Features Numerous worked-out example problems give you hands-on experience solving electromagnetic problems. Drill problems reinforce your understanding of the material. End-of-chapter problems are arranged by chapter section, and many of the odd-numbered problems include answers in the appendix. Detailed MATLAB examples and MATLAB end-of-chapter problems allow for deeper exploration of the subject matter. Practical applications show how electromagnetic theory is put into practice. Concise end-of-chapter summaries capture the key points. Be a part of the solution with EMAG Solutions!This text includes access to EMAG Solutions by JustAsk!
