This edition aims to expand on the first edition and take the
reader through to the wave equation on coaxial cable and free-space
by using Maxwell's equations. The new chapters include time varying
signals and fundamentals of Maxwell's equations. This book will
introduce and discuss electromagnetic fields in an accessible
manner. The author explains electroconductive fields and develops
ideas relating to signal propagation and develops Maxwell's
equations and applies them to propagation in a planar optical
waveguide. The first of the new chapters introduces the idea of a
travelling wave by considering the variation of voltage along a
coaxial line. This concept will be used in the second new chapter
which solves Maxwell's equations in free-space and then applies
them to a planar optical waveguide in the third new chapter. As
this is an area that most students find difficult, it links back to
the earlier chapters to aid understanding. This book is intended
for first- and second-year electrical and electronic undergraduates
and can also be used for undergraduates in mechanical engineering,
computing and physics. The book includes examples and homework
problems. Introduces and examines electrostatic fields in an
accessible manner Explains electroconductive fields Develops ideas
relating to signal propagation Examines Maxwell's equations and
relates them to propagation in a planar optical waveguide Martin
Sibley recently retired after 33 years of teaching at the
University of Huddersfield. He has a PhD from Huddersfield
Polytechnic in Preamplifier Design for Optical Receivers. He
started his career in academia in 1986 having spent 3 years as a
postgraduate student and then 2 years as a British Telecom-funded
research fellow. His research work had a strong bias to the
practical implementation of research, and he taught
electromagnetism and communications at all levels since 1986. Dr.
Sibley finished his academic career as a Reader in Communications,
School of Computing and Engineering, University of Huddersfield. He
has authored five books and published over 80 research papers.
