Ebook: Microwave Curcuit Theory and Analysis

The rapid and continuous growth of microwave engineering in recent years would seem to discourage any attempt to write a book covering all new materials at a given date. There is always the possibility of encountering in the immediate future new discoveries on theories and techniques that can hardly be conceived today, but ,will increase in significance in years to come. As mentioned before, attempts have been made to include in the book some of the most recent topics in the microwave field wherever possible. ·with this object in mind, numerous technical papers and books have been freely consulted while preparing the text.
The author realizes that no formal acknowledgment of these sources, of any kind, can be adequate, and he wishes to express his sincere gratitude to the authors and publishers of the sources referred to in various parts of the book. Grateful acknowledgment is also made for the use of some pioneering works in the microwave analysis field, such as "Principles of Microwave Circuits" by Montgomery, Dicke, and Purcell, which essentially formed the nucleus of one chapter.
In addition, the author acknowledges with sincere thanks the help and encouragement of his colleagues at the Ramo-Wooldridge Corporation and the Radio Corporation of America. He is particularly grateful to Drs. Duane Roller, George Jeromson, Thomas Stout, and Mildred Moe and Mr. Alex Stogryn for their many valuable suggestions. Sincere thanks are due to Mr. William Foss and Miss Andrea Haug for their help in organizing the manuscript.
