ARTECH HOUSE USA : Antennas for Small Mobile Terminals

Description

With the progress and rapid increase in mobile terminals, the design of antennas for these small systems is becoming more and more important. This forward-looking volume offers professionals current and comprehensive coverage of the design, development, and implementation of small, compact, and lightweight antennas in mobile communication terminals. The book discusses a wide range of communication systems, from Radio-frequency identification (RFID), and near field communications (NFC), to wireless power transmission (WPT) and broadband wireless networks.

Engineers learn how to use small antennas in mobile phones, wearable systems, laptop computers, radio watches, and broadband wireless networks such as WLAN and WiMAX. This definite reference covers the critical applications today’s professionals need to understand, from antennas for IoT and antenna design for 5G mm-wave devices, to body-centric communication systems and antennas for unmanned aerial vehicles.

Artech House would like to recognize Dr. Chi Yuk Chiu, of The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, as a contributing author to chapter 7, “Antennas for Wearable Systems, Including Body-Centric Communication Systems".
