Which is the best book on EMT, Tx lines, Antenna etc

AI Thread Summary
For studying electromagnetics, transmission lines, and antennas, "Antennas" and "Electromagnetics" by Kraus are recommended as supplementary texts to Griffiths' "Electromagnetics." The preference for Kraus over Griffiths is noted, particularly for its clarity and style. Additionally, the book "Fundamentals of Electric Waves" is appreciated for its writing but lacks coverage on transmission lines. Suggestions for other texts in a similar style to Richard G. Lyons or Hugh Hildreth Skilling were sought. Overall, Kraus' works are highlighted as strong resources in the field.

Hi PF,
I want a good book to follow for electro magnetics , transmission lines and antennas etc. I would prefer the style of Richard G Lyons (DSP) or Hugh hildreth Skilling (Fundamentals of electric waves). I love the style in book 'Fundamentals of electric waves'. But it deals no transmission lines.

Any suggestions for me , dear friends...

Antennas by Kraus and Electromagnetics by Kraus were two that I used as supplementary text to my main text of Electromagnetics by Griffiths. I preferred Kraus over Griffiths big time.
 

Thread '3-terminal device external modeling'

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...

Thread 'Question about the voltage between two charged capacitors'

suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
