Ultrawideband (UWB) technology, positioned as the cutting edge of research and development, paves the way to meet the emerging demands set by broadband wireless applications, such as high-speed data transmission, medical imaging, short-range radars, electromagnetic testing, etc.This breathtaking resource builds upon the basics of UWB technology to provide a complete compilation of figures of merit along with a vital state-of-the-art of the different antenna alternatives that are to be employed according to the specific application. Without excessive recourse to mathematics, this volume emphasizes on the UWB antenna design and equips readers with practical prediction techniques based on simple formulas and models. The big picture of UWB antenna technology would not be complete without addressing its applications, and this will serve to provide consultants with key clues for market gap analysis. Containing over 150 supporting illustrations and figures, this comprehensive overview of UWB technology, antenna design and applications is a vital source of information and reference for R&D organizations, researchers, practitioners, consultants, RF professionals and communication engineers.Sample Chapter(s)

Chipless radio frequency identification (RFID) technology has emerged as a cost-effective alternative to conventional automated identification systems like RFID, QR codes, and barcodes. Simultaneously, it enables a wide array of novel applications, including recycling, structural health monitoring, and food safety, among many others.In this handbook, the authors provide an in-depth exploration of the design, manufacturing, and implementation guidelines of chipless RFID systems, including   information encoding in chipless tags, the design of radar-based ultra-wideband (UWB) readers and antennas, as well as dedicated signal processing in time- and frequency-domain.This book is not only a practical resource for understanding the core principles and capabilities of chipless RFID, but also a rich source of expert knowledge for those wishing to deepen their understanding or explore particular applications. With real-world examples and detailed guidelines, the Chipless RFID Handbook serves as both a beginner-friendly introduction and an advanced reference on this emerging technology.
