About the Book
SciTech Publishing is reissuing this extremely
valuable learning resource, originally published
in 1992 in the Schaums Problem-Solving Series
for students of electromagnetics and those who
wish to refresh and solidify their understanding
of its challenging applications. Problem-solving
drills help develop confidence, but few
textbooks offer the answers never mind the
complete solutions to their chapter exercises.
Here, noted author Professor Syed Nasar has
divided the books problems into topic areas
similar to a textbook and presented a wide
array of problems, followed immediately by
their solutions.
Learn the best strategies for solving tough
problems in step-by-step detail
Prepare effectively for exams
Use the Index to quickly locate the type of
problems you need to review
Save and use again for refresher
Instructors: this is a great source for extra
homework, quizzes, and exams!

Fundamentals of Electromagnetics with MATLAB,


2nd Edition, by Karl Lonngren, Sava Savov, Randy Jost
Employing the power of MATLAB as both a
visualization and a problem-solving tool, this book
teaches electromagnetics in a much more engaging
manner than traditional textbooks.
(ISBN13: 9781891121588)
Antenna Design and Visualization Using MATLAB,
by Atef Elsherbeni and Matthew Inman
This software program comes with a 110-page User
Guide in a PDF file. It helps students and engineers
in antenna design see the changes resulting from
alterations to the parameters of design specifications.
The authors website provides free upgrades and help
to all who purchase and register the product.

Electronic Applications of the Smith Chart,
by Phillip Smith
The legendary Smith chart inventors classic reference
book describes how the chart is used for designing
lumped element and transmission line circuits. It
provides tutorial material on transmission line
theory and behavior, circuit representation on the
chart, matching networks, network transformations
and broadband matching. It also includes a new
chapter with examples designs and description of the
winSMITH software accessory.
