Antenna Array Design

Design modern phased array systems from the ground up Phased arrays are scaling from radar and high-end communications into 5G, IoT, and consumer electronics, yet most references treat antenna aspects or applications without teaching the full design process. Antenna Array Design provides a step-by-step methodology for designing, building, and testing modern antenna arrays while addressing system-level requirements at each stage. Split into six parts, the book covers modern technologies including software-defined-radio arrays, ADC-DAC digital arrays, and on-chip phased arrays, with numerous examples featuring MATLAB programs and electromagnetic models using commercial software. Readers will also find: Detailed coverage of adaptive beamforming techniques for interference cancellation in 5G and beyond wireless communication systemsStep-by-step design procedures enabling practitioners to build multiple types of phased array systems from initial specificationsTreatment of array processing and digital beamforming alongside traditional electromagnetic analysis for complete system-level understandingAn accompanying website providing computer codes, electromagnetic models, and educational videos.End-of-chapter problems with instructor solutions and PowerPoint slides available for course adoption and classroom instructionAntenna Array Design serves senior undergraduate and graduate students in electrical engineering and physics, researchers at academic institutions and national laboratories, and practicing antenna engineers designing phased array systems for wireless communications, satellite communication, radio astronomy, and remote sensing applications.
