Developments in research  programs  and concepts since the first edition presented a demand for a version that reflected these advances. Extensively revised  the fourth edition of this bestselling text does just that  offering additional formulas and expanded discussions and references  in addition to a chapter on coupled transmission lines.  What Makes This Text So Popular?The first part of the book explores distributed-circuit theory and presents practical applications. Using observable behavior  such as travel time  attenuation  distortion  and reflection from terminations  it analyzes signals and energy traveling on transmission lines at finite velocities. The remainder of the book reviews the principles of electromagnetic field theory  then applies Maxwells equations for time-varying electromagnetic fields to coaxial and parallel conductor lines  as well as rectangular  circular  and elliptical cylindrical hollow metallic waveguides  and fiber-optic cables. This progressive organization and expanded coverage make this an invaluable reference. With its analysis of coupled lines  it is perfect as a text for undergraduate courses  while graduate students will appreciate it as an excellent source of extensive reference material. This Edition Includes: An overview of fiber optic cables emphasizing the principle types  their propagating modes  and dispersion Discussion of the role of total internal reflection at the core\/cladding interface  and the specific application of boundary conditions to a circularly symmetrical propagating mode A chapter on coupled transmission lines  including coupled-line network analysis and basic crosstalk study More information on pulse propagation on lines with skin-effect losses A freeware program available online Solutions manual available with qualifying course adoption\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44986981351477,"sku":"ByrdShop_0849302692","price":170.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780849302695.jpg?v=1770922318","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/transmission-lines-and-wave-propagation-fourth-edition","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
