Antennas for Portable Devices [PDF ebook] 

Offers a comprehensive and practical reference guide to antenna
design and engineering for portable devices

Antennas are often the most bulky components in many portable
wireless devices such as mobile phones. Whilst the demand for
ever smaller and more powerful wireless devices increases, as does
the importance of designing and engineering smaller antennas to fit
these devices.

Antennas for Portable Devices provides a complete and
cutting-edge guide to the design and engineering of small antennas
for portable electronic devices such as mobile phone handsets,
laptop computers, RFID (radio frequency identification), microwave
thermal therapies devices, wearable devices, and UWB
(ultra-wideband) based consumer devices.

The book addresses practical engineering issues that antenna
professionals have to deal with. It explains the immediate demands
for existing systems; discusses the antenna technology for the
latest and emerging applications, and gives comprehensive coverage
of hot topics in the wireless industry. Issues including
design considerations, engineering design, measurement setup and
methodology, and practical applications are all covered in
depth.

Antennas for Portable Devices:

* Covers antennas for all modern portable wireless devices from
handsets, RFID tags, laptops, wearable sensors, UWB-based wireless
USB dongles and handheld microwave treatment devices

* Explains how to design and engineer applications for
miniaturization of antenna technology, utilising practical case
studies to provide the reader with an understanding of systems and
design skills

* Links the basic antenna theory, with design methodology, and
engineering design

* Is amply illustrated with numerous figures and data tables of
antenna designs to aid understanding

* Features contributions from industry and research experts in
antenna technology and applications

This invaluable resource will provide a comprehensive overview
of miniaturizing antenna technology for antenna engineers in
industry, and R&D organizations, graduate students,
consultants, researchers, RF professionals, technical managers, as
well as practitioners working in the area of consumer electronics,
RF systems, wireless communications, or bio-medical devices.
