Metasurface-Driven Electronic Warfare
Understand the metasurface revolution in electronic warfare
Electronic warfare (EW) ensures to one's forces the safe usage of the electromagnetic spectrum while denying it to adversaries. Modern warfare is an extraordinarily fluid and dynamic activity, with numerous involved systems reconfigurable at the front or back ends. Metasurfaces, however, are artificially engineered surfaces that promise to take this dynamism to unprecedented levels by making platforms (aircraft, vessels, etc.) and the environment itself reconfigurable-a revolution that even major EW authorities have yet to fully comprehend.
Metasurface-driven Electronic Warfare outlines the parameters of this revolution and its transformative potential in the EW space. Beginning with a historical overview of the EW dynamism, it then provides the electromagnetics basics to understand metasurfaces, their operation mechanisms, and capacity for shaping electromagnetic waves. Thereafter a series of detailed studies of metasurface applications in EW makes this an indispensable guide to an increasingly dynamic battlefield.
Readers will also find: Clear cost-benefit analyses of metasurface substitutions in modern EW scenarios Detailed discussion of metasurface applications including stealth, electronic support, electronic attack, electronic protection, their use in drone swarms, smart environments, and more Simulations of EW scenarios with accompanying MATLAB codes and exercises
Metasurface-driven Electronic Warfare is ideal for EW analysts, specialists, and operators, as well as signals intelligence and electrical engineering researchers and students. Because it covers the essentials in both areas, the book is also appropriate to support graduate courses on metasurfaces or EW.
