Remote Sensing with Imaging Radar (Hardcover, 2009 ed.): John A. Richards Remote Sensing with Imaging Radar (Hardcover, 2009 ed.)
John A. Richards
R4,221 Discovery Miles 42 210 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book treats the technology of radar imaging for remote sensing applications in a manner suited to the mathematical background of most earth scientists. It assumes no prior knowledge of radar on the part of the reader; instead it commences with a development of the essential concepts of radar before progressing through to a detailed coverage of contemporary ideas such as polarimetry and interferometry.

Because the technology of radar imaging is potentially complex the first chapter provides a framework against which the rest of the book is set. Together, the first four chapters present the technical foundations for remote sensing with imaging radar. Scattering concepts are then covered so that the reader develops the knowledge necessary for interpreting radar data, itself the topic of a later chapter which draws together the current thinking in the analysis of radar imagery.

The treatment is based on the assumption that the radars of interest are, in general, multi-polarised. Polarisation synthesis and polarised interferometric SAR are among the topics covered, as are tomography and the various forms of interferometry. A full chapter is given to bistatic radar, which is now emerging as an imaging technology with enormous potential and flexibility in remote sensing. The book concludes with a summary of passive microwave imaging.

A set of appendices is included that provide supplementary material, among which is an overview of the rather complicated process of image formation with synthetic aperture radar, and summaries of some of the mathematical procedures important for a full appreciation of radar as a remote sensing technology.

This book presents a collection of problems in spin wave excitations with their detailed solutions. Each chapter briefly introduces the important concepts, encouraging the reader to further explore the physics of spin wave excitations and the engineering of spin wave devices by working through the accompanying problem sets. The initial chapters cover the fundamental aspects of magnetization, with its origins in quantum mechanics, followed by chapters on spin wave excitations, such as the magnetostatic approximation, Walker's equation, the spin wave manifold in the three different excitation geometries of forward volume, backward volume and surface waves, and the dispersion of spin waves. The latter chapters focus on the practical aspects of spin waves and spin wave optical devices and use the problem sets to introduce concepts such as variational analysis and coupled mode theory. Finally, for the more advanced reader, the book covers nonlinear interactions and topics such as spin wave quantization, spin torque excitations, and the inverse Doppler effect. The topics range in difficulty from elementary to advanced. All problems are solved in detail and the reader is encouraged to develop an understanding of spin wave excitations and spin wave devices while also strengthening their mathematical, analytical, and numerical programming skills.

Dudley, Series Editor Plane-Wave Theory of Time-Domain Fields provides a comprehensive framework for the formulation and solution of numerous problems involving the radiation, reception, propagation, and scattering of electromagnetic and acoustic waves. Green's function and plane-wave spectrum representations in both the time and frequency domains are systematically derived and effectively applied to the decomposition and analysis of transient and time-harmonic fields. With the publication of this book, probe-corrected near-field measurement techniques, which have previously been confined to the frequency domain, have been extended to ultra-wideband, short-pulse antennas and transducers. Featured topics include:

  • Fundamental theorems in electromagnetics and acoustics
  • A rigorous development of time-domain and frequency-domain plane-wave representations
  • Probe-corrected planar near-field scanning for time-domain and frequency-domain fields
  • Sampling theorems and computation schemes for time-domain and frequency-domain fields
  • The application of plane-wave theory to static electric and magnetic fields
  • Analytic-signal formulas that simplify the formulation and analysis of transient fields
  • Wave phenomena, such as "electromagnetic missiles" encountered only in the time domain
  • Definitive force and power relations for electromagnetic and acoustic fields and sources
By combining unencumbered straightforward derivations with in-depth expositions of prerequisite material, the authors have created aninvaluable resource for research scientists and engineers in electromagnetics and acoustics, and a definitive reference on plane-wave expansions and near-field measurements.
