A guide to broadband microstrip antennas, offering information to help you choose and design the optimum broadband microstrip antenna configurations for your applications, without sacrificing other antenna parameters. The text shows you how to take advantage of the light-weight, low volume benefits of these antennas, by providing explanations of the various configurations and simple design equations that help you analyze and design microstrip antennas with speed and confidence. This practical resource presents an understanding of the radiation mechanism and characteristics of microstrip antennas, and provides guidance on designing new types of planar monopole antennas with multi-octave bandwidth. The authors explore how to select and design proper broadband microstrip antenna configurations for compact, tunable, dual-band and circular polarization applications. Moreover, the work compares all the broadband techniques and suggests the most attractive configuration.

The book deals with a topic of great contemporary significance. Majority-minority relations in nation-states keep up popping up in different forms, and in recent decades the national integration has been confronted with the challenge of ethnicity. The threat to national unity on account of fissiparous forces rooted in race, religion and language and culture has been a world-wide phenomenon. The region of South Asia has witnessed the division of the sub-continent into three states, and these and other states have been further faced with ethnic strife. The articles in this collection focus on the tensions between ethnicity and national integration and generally emphasise the factors of cultural pluralism and constitutional democracy and federal structure as the grounds of accommodation between ethnic diversity and national integration.

This book gathers selected papers presented at the 7th International Conference on Innovations in Electronics and Communication Engineering, held at Guru Nanak Institutions in Hyderabad, India. It highlights contributions by researchers, technocrats and experts regarding the latest technologies in electronic and communication engineering, and addresses various aspects of communication engineering, including signal processing, VLSI design, embedded systems, wireless communications, and electronics and communications in general. Covering cutting-edge technologies, the book offers a valuable resource, especially for young researchers.
