For one/two-semester courses in Electromagnetics.

Bridging the gap between electric circuits and electronmagnetics, Ulaby's text leads students from familiar concepts into more advanced topics and applications. Earlier and heavier emphasis on dynamics permits coverage of practical applications in communication systems, radar, optics and solid state computers. A new, interactive CD-ROM accompanying the text allows students to gain physical intuition about electromagnetics.

Features

• NEW - Robust interactive CD-ROM--CD will contain three types of modules: 1. New navigation architecture, facilitating the use of the CD-ROM and the extraction of information from it. 2. Addition of solutions for the 112 exercises contained in the test enabling the student to verify that his/her solution for a given exercise is correct; the complete solution in the CD-ROM. 3. Expansion of the number of solved sample problems from 45 in the 2001 edition to 90 in this new edition. 4. Expanding the capabilities of the CD-ROM Index to allow the user to easily locate all exercises, demos, modules, and solved problems (contained in the CD-ROM) pertaining to a given topic of interest.
