Dedicated to a new class of wideband antenna, significantly developed over the past two decades, this book is the ultimate reference on magnetoelectric dipole antennas. The author is world-renowned for his pioneering work on antennas and has continuously developed the magnetoelectric dipole antenna since 2006. With contributions from the author and his students as well as results from research groups worldwide, the development of this novel antenna is fully captured. The theory and design are presented step-by-step, using simple technical explanations, making the contents accessible to readers without specialized training in antenna designs. Including the various applications of the antenna such as communications, global positioning, sensing, radar, medical imaging and IoT, this book endeavours to demonstrate the versatility and interdisciplinary of the antennas. Helping readers to develop sophisticated antennas with this thorough coverage on magnetoelectric dipole antennas, this is the ideal reference for graduate students, researchers, and electrical engineers.
