Expanding the range of antenna frequency is the main objective of this book. Solutions proposed are based on the development of new theoretical methods for analyzing and synthesizing antennas. The book shows that concentrated capacitive loads connected along linear and V-antennas provide a high level of matching with a cable over a wide frequency range and improves directional characteristics of...

Biography



Boris Levin was born in Saratov, Russia, in 1937. He received a Ph.D. in Radio Physics in 1969 and Doctor of Sciences degree in Physics and Mathematics (Russian equivalent of Professorship) from S.-Petersburg Polytechnic University in 1993. From 1963 to 1998, he worked for the Design Department "Svyazmorproyekt" of the Russia Shipbuilding Ministry. He has been with the Holon Institute of Technology, Israel since 2008. Levin Boris has authored 7 books on antennas and electrodynamics, 4 of them in English, including "Antenna Engineering: Theory and Problems" (CRC Press, 2017), and 87 original articles in technical journals, 87 papers in proceedings of international scientific conferences, and has 45 patents.
