Abstract :
The most unique aspect of this book is that it approaches microwave and RF circuit design starting from a system concept. A good microwave and RF circuit designer must understand system requirements and create a good system-level design. For microwave and RF design tasks, this book is focused on microstrip and planar circuit design, which prepare the reader for real-world design. This book is organized in such a way that the reader can understand the impact that system-level decisions have on component and subsystem design. The book is organized into six parts, 20 chapters, and six appendices with a total of 623 references, with topics such as: RF Systems; Transmission Lines; Microwave Networks; Microwave Modules; Filters; and Amplifiers and Oscillators.
