High-frequency Circuit Engineering

by F. Nibler, K. Kupfer, W. Janssen, N. Krausse, G. Lang

Overview

This book is aimed at both practising and postgraduate engineers who are interested in the particular problems of high-frequency circuit design. It covers network parameters and how to work with them, various approaches to the use of conductors, and it introduces a large number of circuits using active devices (transistors).

It also deals extensively with computer supported problem solving, both with bespoke and off-the-shelf commercial software on PC or mainframe hosts. The problems of compatibility and noise are dealt with practically and in detail. There are chapters on high-frequency conductors, HF circuits with power transistors, unipolar and bipolar transistors in power stages, computer design and optimisation.

Editorial Reviews

In a translation originally published by Expert-Verlag and Technical Academy of Esslingen and based on courses taught there, eight German engineers discuss the theory and practice of radio-frequency engineering in the field of wireless communications. Focusing on computer supported problem solving, the authors discuss network parameters, CAD programs, noise measurement, and transistor circuits. The text is illustrated by sample calculations and design examples to illustrate techniques. Lacks a bibliography. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
