This proposed book focuses on the design and development of printed antennas along with modeling aspects for multifaceted applications. It further investigates imperfections in the manufacturing processes and assembly operation during the testing/characterization of printed antennas.

There has been enormous growth in printed antenna technology for future-generation wireless communication and healthcare services, covering radio-frequency (RF) and microwave gametes. Efforts are already underway for extending the same technology to sub-THz (Terahertz) waves. THz technology is also knocking at the door of antenna engineers with tremendous potential in miniaturization and promising features for strategic applications.

This book is a practical antenna design guide, covering various real-world applications for those who are plunging into this field. It blends proportionately insight theory and practical design issues of antenna engineering in a beautiful manner. It stems from the extensive experiences of the authors in the analysis, design, and development of various miniaturized printed antennas for future-generation wireless communication and biomedical applications. The profound knowledge of both authors on the subject makes this book an authoritative contribution in the field.

Usually, design engineers do not have adequate opportunity to teach, and academicians rarely have the experience of developing devices and systems to the ultimate point of seeing them tested in the field and accepted in service. The authors have combined these two distinct experiences in a very unusual
manner.

The purpose of this book is to provide a practical antenna design guide covering various real-world applications for those who are plunging into this area. There are already many excellent category textbooks on antenna theory, mathematical formulations, and design. But this book focuses more on practical antenna design and development rather than only theoretical analysis. It tries to find harmony between the analytical approach and practical implementations of antennas. In industry and academia, it is very hard to get a general understanding of the field prior to being engaged in a specialized field. Engineers who are engaged in the field of wireless communication, the aerospace or healthcare industries, 5G, and many other areas will find this book useful.

We have tried to organize the contents in a flow starting from an overview of various modern-day printed antennas, miniaturization techniques, and electrical equivalent circuit modeling of many small antennas and covering two rising fields of printed antennas and finally investigating various aspects of antenna fabrication.

This text:

Discusses in a comprehensive manner the design and development aspects of printed antennas.
Provides fractal engineering aspects for miniaturization and wideband characteristics of the low-profile antenna with high performances.
Covers high gain printed antenna for Terahertz application.
Showcases electrical modeling of smart antennas.
Pedagogical features such as review questions based on practical experiences are included at the end of each chapter.

The book comprehensively discusses fractal engineering in printed antennas for miniaturization and enhancement of performance factors. It further covers the modeling of electrically small antennas, circuit modeling, modeling of factual-based Ultra-Wide Band antennas, and modeling of reconfigurable micro-electromechanical system-based patch antennas. The book highlights performance metrics of multiple-input-multiple-output antennas. It will serve as an ideal reference text for senior undergraduate, graduate students, and academic researchers in fields including electrical engineering, electronics, communications engineering, and computer engineering.
