Description
When you are wracking your brains, trying to solve a complex, seemingly unsolvable problem, sometimes you just have to go back to the basics. To find a solution, you start at the very beginning and review the mathematical rules, laws, and formulas that that are at the root of every electrical engineering problem. This is when you reach for the Mathematical Handbook for Electrical Engineers. Written by electrical engineers, specifically for electrical engineers, this valuable resource presents the most common mathematical techniques used for problem solving and computer-aided analysis. It concisely, clearly, and easily explains the essential mathematics you use everyday on the job, and also serves as a time-saving reference for students. Whether reviewing basic algebra and geometry or delving into differential operators in curved coordinates, the handbook always gives you how-to examples that you can readily apply. These examples are taken from a wide variety of electrical engineering disciplines, including circuits, devices and systems, antennas and propagation, waveforms and signal processing, and stochastic radio engineering. The appendices allow you to quickly reference major mathematical formulas and equations frequently used in electrical engineering, including stochastic simulation algorithms that are typically scattered over numerous books and papers. The next time you need to get back to the basic math of any problem, turn to this handbook - your single source for applied mathematics in electrical engineering.
