The high-speed capabilities and learning abilities of neural networks can be applied to quickly solving numerous complex optimization problems in electromagnetics, and this book shows you how. Even if you have no background in neural networks, this book helps you understand the basics of each main network architecture in use today, including its strengths and limitations. Moreover, it gives you the knowledge you need to identify situations when the use of neural networks is the best problem-solving option. Organized in a modular format that lets you find and use the information you need fast, the book includes five full chapters that zero-in on specific neural network applications. Included are chapters on antennas, remote sensing and target classification, microwave devices and circuit modeling, and real-time performance systems for military and civilian systems, such as GPS and mobile communications. You also see how neural networks can be used in conjunction with other methods, such as the finite element method, the finite difference method, and the method of moments. More than 700 equations and over 200 illustrations are included, and MATLAB code for applications using neural network technology is found in relevant chapters.
