Editorial Review

Analysis of Radome-Enclosed Antennas (Artech House Antenna Library)
- Book Review, by D. J. Kozakoff, Dennis J. Kozakoff

Book News, Inc.
Addressed to engineers or scientists working with antennas and radomes, and to managers in government or business charged with buying radomes or evaluating ones already installed. Explains how to develop advanced software for radome analysis, breaking the overall problem into stages that are solved separately. Covers the elementary background material, the relevant mathematical and electromagnetic theory, the fundamentals of antennas, modeling techniques, and software programming approaches to creating models. The 3.5 disk enclosed contains code in BASIC. -- Copyright © 1999 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR All rights reserved

Book Description
This book and software package provides antenna design engineers with all the analytical tools needed to evaluate and predict the effects of a radome on an enclosed antenna, including transmission loss, boresight error, depolarization, degradation of the antenna sidelobe levels, and more. The author offers a comprehensive overview of radome wall concepts and materials, presents ray trace approaches to show engineers how to achieve solutions easily using a PC, and provides a detailed study of the various types of radome-enclosed antenna.

About the Author
Dr. Dennis J. Kozakoff earned his Ph.D. in electrical engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology, and is president/CEO and founder of Millimeter Wave Technology, Marietta, Georgia. He has published over 100 papers and technical reports, and holds several patents in the field of radomes and antennas.

Analysis of Radome-Enclosed Antennas (Artech House Antenna Library)

Analysis of Radome-Enclosed Antennas

FROM THE PUBLISHER

This new book and software package provides you with the analytical tools you need to evaluate and predict the effects of a radome on an enclosed antenna, including transmission loss, boresight error or boresight error slope, depolarization, or a degradation of the antenna sidelobe levels. It features a comprehensive overview of radome wall concepts and materials, and presents ray trace approaches to help you easily achieve solutions using your PC. The book is accompanied by interactive software that lets you compute antenna patterns and boresight error of gimbaled radar antennas in a multilayer radome. It includes two modules: WALL � Solves the multi-layer dielectric layer system as a boundary value problem � Computes total wall transmission versus angle-of-incidence for parallel and perpendicular polarization � Outputs data in tabular form, with computational angles-of-incidence up to 89 degrees from the normal RADOME � Computes the effect of a multi-layer dielectric wall tangent ogive shaped radome on the radiation pattern of an enclosed monopulse antenna � Lets you select the fineness ratio of the general ogive shape (from F=0.5 to F>>1) � Includes two antenna gimbals: azimuth over elevation (AZ/EL) and elevation over azimuth (EL/AZ) Data from both programs can easily be imported into other software programs such as GRAPHER or LOTUS 123 for high-quality plotting, viewing, and editing. Both programs can handle up to 15 dielectric layers. System Requirements: IBM-compatible 386 or higher (Pentium recommended) with a math coprocessor. 4 MB RAM. Epson-compatible printer to output data.
