Analysis and Design of Reflectarrays/Transmitarrays Antennas

By Christopher Negus and François Caen

Book Overview

This book addresses the design and analysis of different reflectarrays and transmitarray antennas to meet these requirements. A reflectarray is made up of an array of radiating elements that provide a preadjusted phasing to form a focused beam when it is illuminated by a feed, in a similar way to a parabolic antenna. Printed reflectarrays combine certain advantages of reflector antennas and phased arrays. The reflectarray antennas design in this work includes five antennas. The second part in this book discus five designs of the transmitarray. The first transmitarray is single layer transmitarray antenna using rectangular dielectric resonator as the unit cell elements. Two different constructions for the unit cell of the transmitarray are used.The transmitarray is a multilayer dielectric resonator antenna transmitarray for fixed RFID reader applications is presented at 5.8 GHz. A circularly polarized 9x9 square DRA transmitarray is designed at 5.8 GHz for far-field RFID applications. A design of 9x9 near-field focused DRA transmitarray for fixed RFID at 5.8 GHz is investigated. The properties of the NF-focused transmitarray are compared with the far field transmitarray designed."

One of the best around

Wireless Hacks is one of the best, most succinct books on all things wireless that I have come across. I was expecting the standard "how to set up and secure a wireless access point" fare, and while you do get some of that, you get so much more as well. The authors really do a good job covering everything wireless. From BlueTooth technology, to standard WiFi, to hacking routers, to creating your own antennas, this is a...

Jam Full Of Hacks!!!

For the reviewer that said there weren't many hacks in this book, I have no idea what they are talking about. If you play with wireless devices in your spare time and you want to find new toys you can play with, or want to build toys of your own, this is the perfect guide to turn to! With 100 different ideas and tips, for any wireless junkie that likes to take things apart, put things back together, and play with the latest...

Wireless Network Primer

The best defense is a good offense and that is exactly what Flickenger brings to the market with his book. Inside you will find pretty much everything you need to know about wireless networks including how to build a pringles cantenna. If you're a wireless network admin then this book should be sitting on your shelf. Can't go wrong with it!

For the serious wireless freak

This is an amazing book about wireless. It's coverage of everything from the operating system level stuff, to drivers, to cards, to hacking cards, to building your own antenna, to doing shotgun wireless is just incredible. If you are a serious wireless junkie you will love this book. For the casual coffee shop surfer, this is probably not the right book, but you probably don't have any issues with wireless anyway.
