Abstract :
This book brings together many authors from both industrial and academic backgrounds. It is not a treatise on the mathematics of antennas, but a tour of antenna applications for portable electronics. The techniques, applications, mathematics, radiation patterns and realization of antennas in handsets, RFID tags, laptop computers, thermal therapy, wearable devices, and ultrawideband communications are all covered. Some of the chapters are more academic and some are more practical, and this doesn´t always correlate with whether an academic or industrial person wrote the article. Although not a design manual or textbook, the book offers a great look into the world of antennas in the wireless devices that surround us.
