This book explores the design of low-cost, high-performance quasioptical systems for millimeter wavelengths, covering Gaussian beam propagation, contemporary components, and techniques for lenses and mirrors, catering to engineers and researchers.
Quasioptical Systems addresses the growing demand for cost-effective, high-performance systems utilizing millimeter wavelengths in various applications such as remote sensing, communications, and radar. As these technologies become increasingly commercialized, there is a corresponding need for innovative quasioptical systems that can effectively manage these wavelengths. This book serves as a comprehensive guide, merging theoretical concepts with practical applications to facilitate the design of low-loss, broadband systems that operate within the microwave to submillimeter wave spectrum.
The text begins with a foundational introduction to Gaussian beams and quasioptical propagation, providing readers with essential knowledge to understand the principles underlying these systems. The author emphasizes the use of Gaussian beams, which exhibit a predictable propagation pattern due to their characteristic distribution of field strength. This approach enables designers to create systems that are both efficient and reliable.
Additionally, Quasioptical Systems offers a wealth of resources for professionals in the field, including a concise summary of Gaussian beam propagation formulas and extensive insights into contemporary quasioptical components and their performance metrics. The book also delves into the use of dielectric materials at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths, as well as an analysis of lenses and mirrors, complete with design techniques. With its detailed exploration of these topics, this book is a valuable resource for systems designers, antenna engineers, communications systems engineers, and researchers seeking to enhance their understanding of quasioptical technologies.
