Electromagnetic Fields in Cavities: Deterministic and Statistical Theories

Description
The first book of its kind, Electromagnetic Fields in Cavities presents a unique combination of rigorous solutions to Maxwell's equations with conservation of energy to solve for the statistics of many quantities of interest: penetration into cavities (and shielding effectiveness), field strengths far from and close to cavity walls, and power received by antennas within cavities. Including all modes, rather than just the dominant mode, as well as wall losses and a special treatment of the current source region, the book is a valuable tool for researchers, practicing engineers, professors, and graduate students.
About the Author
David A. Hill is a Guest Researcher at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) specializing in cavity theory and reverberation chamber applications. Previously, he held project leader positions with the Institute for Telecommunication Sciences and NIST. Since 1980, he has been an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Colorado at Boulder, where he teaches graduate courses in electromagnetics and advises graduate students on master's and PhD theses. Dr. Hill is an IEEE Life Fellow and a member of URSI Commissions A, B, E, and F. He has won IEEE EMC Society Prize Paper Awards for "Out-of-Band Response of Antenna Arrays" in 1987 and "On Determining the Maximum Emissions from Electrically Large Sources" in 2002.
