but this new edition now includes the fundamentals of electronic warfare (EW) as well. Thisbook distills the very complex, rich technologies of radar and EW into its fundamentals, tyingthem to the laws of nature on one end and to the most modern and complex systems on theother.This should be the first book selected to provide a solid foundation in both radar and electronicwarfare. Readers with a technical or business degree should be well prepared to understandthe vast majority of concepts in this book as they are mathematically represented using algebra.Some concepts use trigonometry and a very select few use calculus. It is written specifically forthose with little or no knowledge of radar and EW technologies.
Key Features Theory of diffraction at black bodies introduces the Shadow Radiation, a fundamental component of the scattered field. RCS of finite bodies of revolution-cones, paraboloids, etc. -models of construction elements for aircraft and missiles. Scheme for measurement of that part of a scattered field which is radiated by the diffraction (so-called nonuniform) currents induced on scattering objects. Development of the parabolic equation method for investigation of edge-diffraction. New exact and asymptotic solutions in the strip diffraction problems, including scattering at an open resonator.
The definitive book on bistatic radar provides a history of bistatic systems and alerts potential designers to non-working applications and dead-ends. While reviewing basic concepts and definitions, the text explains mathematical development of relationships such as geometry, Ovals of Cassini, dynamic range, isorange and isodoppler contours, and clutter doppler spread.
The long awaited revision of the classic book Transmission Line Transformers, by Jerry Sevick, is now in its fifth edition and has been updated and reorganised by Raymond Mack to provide communication engineers with a clear technical presentation of both the theory and practical applications of the transmission of radio communication.Sevick's Transmission Line Transformers: Theory and Practice, 5th Edition reviews the underlying principles that promote a better understanding of transmission line transformers. Ideal for academics and practicing engineers, this edition is divided into two clear parts for easy reference. Part one is a review of the theory and new concepts, including a discussion on the magnetic properties that affect the core of a transmission line transformer. Part two essentially focuses on the 'practice' element of the book title. This section has been updated to reflect the significant changes in component suppliers over the 30 years since the first edition of the book.Highlights of this title include the coverage of substantial background theory, recent work on fractional ratio transformers and high power Balun designs, and provides updated sources for transformer materials to reflect mergers, sales, and business failures over the past 20 years. There is also expanded coverage of commercial sources of low impedance coaxial cable; expanded construction hints for purpose built rectangular parallel transmission lines; plus an updated test equipment chapter to reflect modern computer based experimenter grade test equipment sources. Ray has leveraged his experience with ferrite materials for switching power to explain the performance characteristics of the ferrite materials used for RF power transmission line transformers.
Greatly expanded from the best-selling second edition by George W.Stimson, this book offers a complete overview of the major developments in air and spaceborne radar in line with advances in modern technology.
