Electromagnetic Waves continues the applied approach used in the authors' successful Engineering Electromagnetics. The second book is appropriate for a second course in Electromagnetics that covers the topic of waves and the application of Maxwell's equations to electromagnetic events.

• Demonstrates how electromagnetic concepts are important to modern electrical engineering applications.

• More examples and problems than competing texts—All include references to current literature or practical applications.

• Footnotes and biographies.

  • Motivates student interest and understanding. Ex.___

• An intuitive and progressive approach—Covers topics in order of increasing complexity.

• Emphasis on physical understanding and clarity—Without sacrificing rigor and completeness.

• Detailed examples, selected application examples, abundant illustrations, and numerous end-of-chapter problems emphasizing practical applications.

• Historical notes, abbreviated biographies, and hundreds of footnotes.

  • Motivates student interest and enhance understanding, and provides leads for further reading. Ex.___

 1. Maxwell's Equations and Electromagnetic Waves.


 2. Waves in an Unbounded Medium.


 3. Reflection, Transmission, and Refraction of Waves at Planar Interfaces.


 4. Parallel-Plate and Dielectric Slab Waveguides.


 5. Cylindrical Waveguides and Cavity Resonators.


 6. Field-Matter Interactions and Elementary Antennas.
