Undergraduate college level textbook on the the theoretical and practical principles of design and construction of drones. This book started as a textbook for the EET-112 Sensors for Drones class at Union Community College; along the course, it evolved into a guide for designing drones, specifically multi-propeller copters. This book is intended to be a practical manual; any theoretical material presented here is used as background to justify the calculations and design presented in the final chapters; it would be difficult to understand the numbers and design decisions without this foundation. Since it is an undergraduate, college level work, the text does require some knowledge of Calculus and Mathematics in general; some parts will require understanding of software programming and a basic knowledge of electricity and physics. The mathematics will be kept quite informal, it is just a tool for understanding some of the concepts presented along the book. The same can be said for the physical models used throughout the text. The content tries to aggregate in one single place all the information needed to design and build multi-propeller copters - information that is scattered all over the Internet - as well as data our team gathered from the years spent building and flying custom made, mobile network connected drones; some of the information in this book will not be found anywhere else; this is, however, a rapidly evolving field and some of the information and links here may become obsolete. As the author, I will try my best to keep the information up-to-date.

This book introduces the basics of the Internet of Things (IoT) and explores the foundational role of sensors in IoT applications. The IoT is a network of devices and objects: sensors, actuators, hardware, software, human beings, domestic appliances, health monitoring equipment, and other things connected to the internet, which is designed to operate in a coordinated fashion to receive, process, and interpret signals and take appropriate action. It provides a seamless real-time interface between the physical and digital worlds by integrating sensors with networking, computation, and actuation facilities. This book sketches a perspective of the IoT with sensors as the focus of attention. Diverse applications of the IoT that are destined to make an impact on our everyday lives in the near future are discussed. It presents a comprehensive overview of the most recent sensor technologies used in the IoT to keep the reader abreast of the current advances at the frontiers of knowledge. The book will cater to student and professional audiences, and will be useful for postgraduate and Ph.D. students studying physics, engineering, and computer science as well as researchers, engineers, and industrial workers engaged in this fast-progressing field.

Comprehensive resource presenting the fundamentals and state of the art concepts, design examples, relevant components, and technology. Slow-wave Microwave and mm-wave Passive Circuits presents the fundamentals and state of the art concepts, design examples, relevant components, and technology of the subject, plus examples of circuit layout optimization using slow-wave circuits. Recent advances in aspects of the slow-wave concept are covered, with potential applications including automotive radars, medical and security applications, and 5G and future 6G for very high-speed communications. The text considers a variety of slow-wave structures and associated concepts which are useful for circuit design, each structure electrically modeled with clear illustration. The highly qualified authors show that the use of the slow-wave concept can, in some cases, improve the performance of passive circuits. The techniques proposed make it possible to reduce the size and/or the performance of the circuits, with a beneficial cost-saving effect on semiconductor materials. Concepts are applied to several technologies, namely CMOS, PCB (Printed Circuit Board) and nanowires. We present in this book three types of slow-wave structures: (i) coplanar lines (coplanar waveguide or coplanar stripline), which constitute the first type of slow-wave transmission lines genuinely used as such with very good efficiency in CMOS integrated technology, and first implemented by John Long’s team at TU Delft, (ii) microstrip lines, and then (iii) substrate integrated waveguides (SIW). Building upon these three types of lines, we describe a large number of circuits whose performances and dimensions have been enhanced using the slow-wave concept.
