This book provides a comprehensive grounding in the principles of antennas and radio-wave propagation, covering both terrestrial and satellite radio systems in mobile and fixed contexts. It explains electromagnetic wave behavior, antenna fundamentals, propagation measurement, modeling and prediction for various wireless environments (macrocells, microcells, picocells, fixed links), as well as channel modelling (narrowband and wideband), and techniques like diversity, adaptive antennas, equalisers for mitigating channel impairments — equipping students and engineers with both theoretical foundations and practical design tools.
