Antenna Theory

在浩如烟海的天线教材里，Balanis 这本被读者直呼为"天线圣经"，它的地位并非来自花哨的新奇概念，而是源于一种近乎偏执的扎实。读者反复提及的是它"基本的推导和逻辑都很清晰"，从极化到阵列，每一步都经得起推敲。它不是拿来"看"的书，而是拿来"查"的书——一个从业工程师案头常年摊开的那本。当然，也有人抱怨它"wordy but useful"，篇幅冗长却确有分量；非通信专业者读来会感到吃力。正因如此，它更适合电子、射频方向的本科生与工程师：你若愿意花两年时间与它磨合一遍，它会还你一套完整而严谨的天线理论框架。

CONSTANTINE A. BALANIS received his BSEE degree from Virginia Tech in1964, his MEE degree from the University of Virginia in 1966, his PhD in electrical engineering from The Ohio State University in 1969, and an honorary doctorate from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in 2004. From 1964 to 1970, he was with the NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, and from 1970 to 1983, he was with the Department of Electrical Engineering of West Virginia University. In 1983, he joined Arizona State University and is now Regents' Professor of Electrical Engineering. Dr. Balanis is a Life Fellow of the IEEE and the author of Advanced Engineering Electromagnetics, also published by Wiley.
