Compact and Broadband Microstrip Antennas First Edition

Not bad if you are just looking for a large collection of different types of patch antennas at a set frequency. This is a book for someone wanting to see what exists with references. It is not a book for those that want equations for the design of these antennas. You will need to find the reference and go find the design equations. The antennas size and performance info is realized for a set frequency.

This book is a collection of patch antennas for different kinds of applications. It is mainly based on the research of the author's research group. In my opinion it is a very valuable first source for antenna designers looking for a patch antenna toplogy to start their design. I have used some of these designs as a starting point for my own designs. It is too bad these 'collection books' aren't frequently published.

The book is very practical. Design examples are detailed and well explained.
