Brief IntroductionThe book aims to
cultivate students' interest in
professional basic theories and broaden
their horizons, and gradually explains the
basic theories and analysis methods of
electromagnetic fields and electromagnetic
waves. The book is divided into eight
chapters, which enhance the readability of
the book through appropriate introduction
of cases and reading materials. This book
uses physical concepts to explain
theoretical results and mathematical
derivations, in order to reduce the
difficulty of learning it. The book also
provides many examples and exercises to
help readers gain a deeper understanding
and mastery of the relevant knowledge
points.
The book is a direct translation of our
previously published books on
electromagnetic fields and waves to meet
the demand for bilingual teaching and
learning textbooks in English. The book is
widely used. It can be used as a
professional textbook for undergraduate
students majoring in science and
engineering in universities. It can also be
used as a reference book for engineering
and technical personnel in the fields of
electronic information engineering,
electrical engineering, communication
engineering, and control science and
engineering.
