I drifted away from electromagnetics in the 3rd year, specialising in computer engineering, so never really got much past Maxwell, but now, because of the amateur radio interest, especially antennae, I'd now like to take on a deep understanding of what's happening. Hello. So you want a "deep" understanding of antenna theory?Â* Pick up a copy of the two volume "bible" set from McGraw-Hill that I used in a grad school course, "Antenna Theory" by R.E. Collin and F.J. Zucker. These texts will set you back a few bucks.Â* But be warned: If you don't understand that undergrad vector calculus stuff like "curl" and "divergence" used in things such as Green's and Stokes' theorems, you'll be lost in the forest.Â* (Wishing amateur radio folks would stop using the modifier "magnetic" when mentioning loop antennas).Â* Sincerely, I have Ramo, Whinnery and Van Duzer, 2nd Ed; also Aharoni.
