Electromagnetic Waves 1. Pierre-Noël Favennec

Volume 2, Jean-Pierre Blot, expert in radio antennas of all configurations, directs his analysis towards antennas, essential elements for the detection of electromagnetic waves, their characterization and use. This volume is intended to describe what an effective antenna should be, according to various parameters and conditions of use. It does not address the detection problems specific to photonics. Photonics and these detection problems will be seen in a future publication of the “Waves” series.

      Important appendices with essential information, presenting in particular mathematical tools, complete these two volumes.
