Short Description
Coplanar waveguides are an alternative to the more common stripline and microstripline waveguides. They have applications in wireless communications, intelligent vehicle highway systems, cellular and personal communication services and in low earth orbit satellite communications among others.
This will be the first book devoted entirely to the theory and applications of coplanar waveguides, which are becoming important as an alternative to the more common stripline and microstripline waveguides.
* Author is acknowledged expert with numerous publications in this area.
* First book devoted entirely to the theory and applications of coplanar waveguides.
* Important applications in telecommunications.
