Description

In addition to the fundamental concepts and formulations in electromagnetic theory, Ishimaru discusses advanced mathematical techniques along with a broad spectrum of new topics, such as mixing formulas, chiral media and radon transform. The text presents several issues relatively neglected in other publications, including London's equations, diffraction tomography and polarimetry, and covers advanced topics such as EFIE, MFIE, GTD, UTD, T-matrix, spectral method, lateral waves, Abel's inversion, formula and others. Fundamentals and applications such as the WKB method, eigenfunctions, dispersion and microstrip lines are emphasized and figures are included, along with chapter problems.
