Electronic Scanned Array Design

The scope of this book is a class of antennas termed electronic scanned arrays (ESAs). The discussion focuses on antenna hardware, specifically radar antennas, although communications and receive antennas are broadly similar. The book has 18 chapters and is divided into 4 parts. The first deals with...
