Synopses & Reviews
An excellent introduction to radio frequency engineering for students and engineers.
Review
"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
