An Introduction to Radio Frequency Engineering
Originally published in 2004, this book provides a detailed introduction to radio frequency (RF) engineering, using a straightforward and easily understood approach combined with numerous worked examples, illustrations and homework problems. The author focuses on minimising the mathematics needed to grasp the subject while providing a solid theoretical foundation for the student. Emphasis is also placed on the practical aspects of radio engineering. The book provides a broad coverage of RF systems, circuit design, antennas, propagation and digital techniques. It will provide an excellent introduction to the subject for graduate students, researchers and practising engineers.
- Complete coverage of RF systems, circuits, antennas and propagation
- Accessible for students - light on maths
- Practical approach
Reviews & endorsements
"His approach gives readers a strong theoretical foundation by using a minimum of mathematics and numerous examples, illustrations, and homework problems. This well-written book is intended for upper-level electrical engineering undergraduates, graduate students, researchers, and practicing engineers. Recommended for libraries associated with electrical engineering academic programs. Highly recommended." F.A. Cassara, Polytechnic University, CHOICE
