Developments in antenna analysis and design

The concept of this book was developed to present recent developments in antenna design and modeling techniques for a wide variety of applications. The application areas were chosen because they are contemporary in nature, have been receiving considerable attention in recent years, and also because they are crucial for future developments. The second volume of the book covers the topics of graphene-based antennas; millimeter-wave antennas; terahertz antennas; optical antennas; fundamental bounds of antennas; fast and numerically efficient techniques for analyzing antennas; statistical analysis of antennas; ultra-wideband arrays; reflectarrays; and antennas for small satellites, viz., CubeSats. It is hoped that the antenna community including designers, students, researchers, faculty engaged in teaching and research of antennas, and the users as well as decision makers would find the book useful.
