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.
 
Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
