The completely rewritten and revised Second Edition updates a famous work originally published by the Hughes Aircraft Company. Much more than a simple introduction, the book is actually a history, reference, tech manual, and textbook rolled into one beautiful illustrated volume, packed with full color photos, drawings, tables and charts, plus...

The history of airborne radar is almost as old as that of radar itself. The improvement in detection range provided by an airborne platform was realised early during the Second World War, and the development of the cavity magnetron at almost the same time allowed higher radar frequencies and, hence, directive antennas to be used. Nowadays,...

This book introduces a general hardware acceleration technique that can significantly speed up finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations and their applications to engineering problems without requiring any additional hardware devices. It provides detailed code demonstration and analysis to help readers get the step-by-step guidelines...
