This quick source of practical design data supplies fingertip access to distilled information you need to solve common design problems. In it you will find: a presentation of basic concepts; definitions; rules of thumb and far-field characteristics for some theoretical aperture distributions; impedance and matching techniques; techniques for extracting information from voltage standing wave ratios and radiation patterns, and much more. Supported by 18 tables, 130 line drawings and 199 key equations.
