Synopses & Reviews
Using an easily understood approach combined with numerous worked examples, illustrations and homework problems, this textbook focuses on minimizing the mathematics needed to grasp radio frequency engineering. The book includes broad coverage of RF systems, circuit design, antennas, propagation and digital techniques. Written for upper level undergraduate courses, it will also provide an excellent introduction to the subject for graduate students, researchers and practicing 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
