This textbook provides a solid foundation into many approaches that
are used in the analysis of advanced electromagnetic wave propagation
problems. The techniques discussed are essential to obtain closed-form
solutions or asymptotic solutions and meet an existing need for
instructors and students in electromagnetic theory. The book covers
various advanced mathematical methods used in the evaluation of the
electromagnetic fields in rectangular, cylindrical and spherical
geometries. The mathematics of special functions (i.e., Bessel,
Hankel, Airy, Legendre, Error, etc.) are covered in depth, including
appropriate Appendices. The author takes particular care to provide
detailed explanations of auxiliary potentials, Hertz’s vectors,
Debye potentials, as well as the use of Green functions, the Watson
transformation and the method of steepest descent in the solution of
electromagnetic problems. Overall, Advanced Electromagnetic Wave
Propagation Methods is a good source for the many skills required in
obtaining closed form and asymptotic solution, which in many instances
cannot be obtained using computer codes of Maxwell’s equations.
Thus, it provides an excellent training for preparing graduate
students in their research work. This book is intended for a graduate
course in electromagnetic theory for students in electrical
engineering. Students in physics and professionals will also find it
appropriate and useful. Provides a comprehensive and unified treatment
of radiation and propagation problems Presents a detailed explanation
in the use of Green functions, the Watson transformation and the
method of steepest descent as they apply to electromagnetic problems
Demonstrates various advanced mathematical techniques used in the
evaluation of the electromagnetic fields Details how to formulate and
obtain a closed-form solution or an asymptotic solution Includes
appendices for Bessel, Legendre, Airy and Error functions
