Generalized transmission line method to study the far-zone radiation of antennas under a multilayer structure

This book gives a step-by-step presentation of a generalized transmission line method to study the far-zone radiation of antennas under a multilayer structure. Normally, a radiation problem requires a fullwave analysis which may be time consuming. The beauty of the generalized transmission line meth...
