This book is an essential resource for researchers involved in designing antennas and RCS calculations and students studying high frequency diffraction techniques. It contains basic original ideas of the Physical Theory of Diffraction (PTD), examples of its practical application, and its validation by the mathematical theory of diffraction.

This book combines theoretical concepts with experimental results on thermal microwave radiation to increase the understanding of the complex nature of terrestrial media. Emphasising radiative transfer models, this book covers the needs for the transition from the experimental phase of microwave remote sensing to operational applications.

What is radar? What systems are currently in use? How do they work? Understanding Radar Systems provides engineers and scientists with answers to these critical questions, focusing on actual radar systems in use today.

The material presented in this book is intended to provide the reader with a pratical treatment of Weibull distribution as applied to radar systems. This book is primarily written for radar engineeres.

This advanced research monograph is devoted to the Wiener-Hopf technique, a function-theoretic method that has found applications in a variety of fields, most notably in analytical studies of diffraction and scattering of waves.

This book describes a wide range of antenna designs and the fundamentals of their operation. Particular attention is paid to the effects of an antenna's ambient environment and the structure upon which it is mounted (permanent or mobile), and methods of predicting and measuring its performance.

This postgraduate text focuses on novel transmission strategies as a way to improve performance in a variety of civil, defence and homeland security applications. It will also be of interest to R&D engineers in companies specialising in applications of radar signal processing.

This book presents the equivalent-circuit parameters for a large number of microwave structures.
