    This document provides an overview of antennas and wave propagation. It discusses antenna radiation mechanisms, types of antennas including monopoles, dipoles and loops. It also covers basic antenna parameters such as radiation patterns, gain and directivity. Additionally, it introduces aperture antennas, frequency independent antennas and antenna measurements. The document concludes with a discussion of radio wave propagation including ground waves, space waves and ionosphere propagation. Computer based experiments involving antenna radiation pattern simulations in Matlab or Mathematica are also mentioned.
