Electromagnetics and Transmission Lines

Essentials for Electrical Engineering

By: Robert Alan Strangeway,Steven Sean Holland,James Elwood Richie

Electromagnetics and Transmission Lines Textbook resource covering static electric and magnetic fields, dynamic electromagnetic fields, transmission lines, antennas, and signal integrity within a single course Electromagnetics and Transmission Lines provides coverage of what every electrical engineer (not just the electromagnetic specialist) should know about electromagnetic fields and transmission lines. This work examines several fundamental electrical engineering concepts and components from an electromagnetic fields viewpoint, such as electric circuit laws, resistance, capacitance, and self and mutual inductances. The approach to transmission lines (T-lines), Smith charts, and scattering parameters establishes the underlying concepts of vector network analyzer (VNA) measurements. System-level antenna parameters, basic wireless links, and signal integrity are examined in the final chapters. As an efficient learning resource, electromagnetics and transmission lines content is strategically modulated in breadth and depth towards a single semester objective. Extraneous, distracting topics are excluded. The wording style is somewhat more conversational than most electromagnetics textbooks in order to enhance student engagement and inclusivity while conveying the rigor that is essential for engineering student development. To aid in information retention, the authors also provide supplementary material, including a homework solutions manual, lecture notes, and VNA experiments. Sample topics covered in Electromagnetics and Transmission Lines include: Vector algebra and coordinate systems, Coulomb’s law, Biot-Savart law, Gauss’s law, and solenoidal magnetic flux Electric potential, Ampere’s circuital law, Faraday’s law, displacement current, and the electromagnetic principles underlying resistance, capacitance, and self and mutual inductances The integral form of Maxwell’s equations from a conceptual viewpoint that relates the equations to physical understanding (the differential forms are also included in an appendix) DC transients and AC steady-state waves, reflections, and standing waves on T-lines Interrelationships of AC steady-state T-line theory, the Smith chart, and scattering parameters Antenna basics and line-of-sight link analysis using the Friis equation An introduction to signal integrity Electromagnetics and Transmission Lines is an authoritative textbook learning resource, suited perfectly for engineering programs at colleges and universities with a single required electromagnetic fields course. Student background assumptions are multivariable calculus, DC and AC electric circuits, physics of electromagnetics, and elementary differential equations.

A Programmed Review for Electrical Engineering

By: James H. Bentley

The field of electrical engineering is very innovative-new products and new ideas are continu ally being developed. Yet all these innovations are based on the fundamental principles of electrical engineering: Ohm's law, Kirchhoff's laws, feedback control, waveforms, capacitance, resistance, inductance, electricity, magnetism, current, voltage, power, energy. It is these basic fundamentals which are tested for in the Professional Engineering Examination (PE Exam). This text provides an organized review of the basic electrical engineering fundamentals. It is an outgrowth of an electrical engineering refresher course taught by the author to candidates preparing for the Professional Engineering Examination-a course which has enabled scores of electrical engineers in Minnesota and Wisconsin to successfully pass the PE Exam. The material is representative of the type of questions appearing in the PE Exams prepared by the National Council of Engineering Examiners (NCEE) over the past twelve years. Each problem in the text has been carefully selected to illustrate a specific concept. Included with each problem is at least one solution. Although the solutions have been carefully checked, both by the author and by students, there may be differences of interpretation. Also, in some cases certain assumptions may need to be made prior to problem solution, and since these to individual, the final answer may also differ. The assumptions will vary from individual author has attempted to keep the requirements for assumptions and interpretation to a mini mum.

Lender Liability

By: James O'Donovan

Addresses the liability and risk issues that arise at each successive stage of the relationship between lenders and borrowers or guarantors. This work adopts a practical, transaction-based approach, examining the different stages of the relationship in turn and the legal issues that arise along the way. It also gives guidance on breach of loans.
