This text is intended for use by engineers and researchers working in phased array theory and technology. It also contains practical design data for antenna designers, radar and communications engineers and array designers and researchers, and should be suitable for use on university courses on antenna rays. This reference provides complete design details enabling systems engineers to size an array system with the minimum of additional information, and includes enough detailed description of analytic methods to enable researchers to assess the state of electromagnetics applicable to this technology. In-depth descriptions include patttern optimization, elements and architecture for arrays and gain, directivity and various effeciencies for generalized arrays.

Phase Array Design, not satellite dish installation...(???),
By J. W. (Northern Virginia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Phased Array Antenna Handbook (Artech House Antenna Library) (Hardcover)
Contrary to the previous reviewer's belief, this text has nothing to do with "installation" of "satellite dishes"... The subject of this book is phased array antenna design... It does a reasonably decent job... It's nicely focused on it's subject... As always, where Artech published books are concerned, it's a bit overpriced for what it provides, but it's still a reasonably good buy... (Handy man???)

Excellent book on phased arrays,

This review is from: Phased Array Antenna Handbook, Second Edition (Artech House Antennas and Propagation Library) (Hardcover)
After reading the ludicrous comments in "THE BEST IN ANTENNA INSTALLATION", I felt like writing a review. The "Phased Array Antenna Handbook, 2nd Edition" by Robert Mailloux, is an excellent book on theory and architectures of phased arrays. It is up-to-date, well written and contains a balanced mix of text, equations, figures and references. It also provides a good overview and thorough discussion of phased array architectures, refraining from using a case study approach.
The book contains eight chapters: 1. Phased Arrays in Radar and Communication Systems 2. Pattern Characteristics of Linear and Planar Arrays 3. Pattern Synthesis for Linear and Planar Arrays 4. Patterns of Non-planar Arrays 5. Elements for Phased Arrays 6. Summary of Element Pattern and Mutual Impedance Effects 7. Array Error Effects 8. Special Array Feeds for Limited Field-of-View and Wideband Arrays Although, the material of chapter 1, 2, 3 and 5 is covered in basic antenna textbooks, I learned quite a few things because it is written from a radar designer's perspective. (I completed prior course work in antennas and studied the book "Antenna Theory, Analysis and Design" by Balanis.) Over time, I also bought the books "Practical Phased Array Antenna Systems" by Brookner and "Phased Array Antennas" by Hansen, but they are less up-to-date and less accessible. Other books on phased arrays generally do not offer much more in-depth treatment of phased arrays than basic antenna textbooks.

THE BEST IN ANTENNA INSTALLATION,
By "jchen@pacificwest.com" (Northern VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Phased Array Antenna Handbook (Artech House Antenna Library) (Hardcover)
this book completely tells you everything about all types of antennas and satellite dishes too!!!! It won't lie and tell you its easy to do, because its definitly not. But you will feel confident with this book. Kind of like a "handy man to go".
