Description: This volume
primarily deals, in simple language, with function and behavior of radio waves,
and construction and function of antennas. It is a must have for the bookshekf
of any science or electronics enthiusiast.
PROPAGATION
means "movement through a medium." In this case, the science of
sound, light and radio waves moving through antennas and waveguids, the earth,
sea, space, and atmosphere.
It begins with
some basic physics of light and sound waves , then moving into Doppler Effect,
Radio Waves and Transmission Lines.
Lessons include
principles and common applications of a full range of radio frequency bands
from the long range VLF in the 3-30 KHz, through LF, MF, HF, VHF, UHF, SHF, and
300GHz EHF.
Finally, an
entire chaper is dedicated to an extensive discussion of the construction and
function of antennas, from simple aerial long wires, to phased sattelite
arrays.
