Preface This Instructors’ Manual provides solutions to most of the problems in Antennas: for All Applications, THIRD EDITION. All problems are solved for which answers appear in Appendix F of the text, and in addition, solutions are given for a large fraction of the other problems. Including multiple parts, there are 600 problems in the text and solutions are presented here for the majority of them. Many of the problem titles are supplemented by key words or phrases alluding to the solution procedure. Answers are indicated. Many tips on solutions are included which can be passed on to students. Although an objective of problem solving is to obtain an answer, we have endeavored to also provide insights as to how many of the problems are related to engineering situations in the real world. The Manual includes an index to assist in finding problems by topic or principle and to facilitate finding closely-related problems. This Manual was prepared with the assistance of Dr. Erich Pacht.
