A very complete and theoretical summary of the magnetic properties of isolators and junction circulators. Discusses the broadband problem. It systematically covers all important devices and their applications. The text is organized in blocks of chapters dealing with specialized effects and circuit aspects of the circulator.

This book examines the new and important technology of asymmetric passive components for miniaturized microwave passive circuits. The asymmetric design methods and ideas set forth by the author are groundbreaking and have not been treated in previous works.

Written by a leading authority in the field, Phased Array Antennas provides an in-depth treatment of array phenomena and all aspects of phased array analysis and design, with a new emphasis on developments in the field over the last 10 years.

The book describes the fundamental principles of computer arithmetic. Algorithms for performing operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division in digit computer systems are presented, with the goal of explaining the concepts behind the algorithms, rather than addressing any direct applications.

Underlying some of the hottest technologies of the new millennium, radio frequency (RF) and microwave wireless systems rapidly propel us toward a future in which the transmission of voice and data communications will be possible anywhere in the world through the use of simple, handheld devices.

The rapid development of computer techniques and information technologies has fueled the need for efficient tools for electromagnetic modeling of millimeter wave integrated circuits, high speed and high density VLSI circuits, including computer chips and wireless computer applications.

Deals with Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), which is the reception of undesired radio signals originating from digital electronics and electronic equipment.

This is the first book to provide comprehensive coverage of hardware and circuit design specifically for engineers working in wireless communications. It serves as a reference for practicing engineers and technicians working in the areas of RF, microwaves, communications, solid-state devices, and radar.

Presents insights into how various components and systems evolved. Premised on the idea that one cannot know a science without knowing its history, this work starts with the background - magnetism, electricity, light, and Maxwell's Electromagnetic Theory, and then offers insights into the initial theory and experimental exploration of wireless.

Reflects the developments in the field of ring resonators. This book introduces the analysis and models of ring resonators. It also covers its applications in microstrip, slotline, coplanar waveguide, and waveguide transmission lines.

A microstrip antenna consists of a thin metallic conductor bonded to a thin grounded dielectric substrate. Such an antenna is very compact and suitable for portable communications equipment. Compact microstrip antennas are of great importance in meeting the miniaturization requirements of modern portable communications equipment.

The latest text in the Wiley Series in Microwave and Optical Engineering The first comprehensive resource on planar antenna designs Planar antennas are the newest generation of antennas, boasting such attractive features as low profile, light weight, low cost, and ease of integration into arrays.

Up-to-date coverage of the analysis and applications of coplanar waveguides to microwave circuits and antennas The unique feature of coplanar waveguides, as opposed to more conventional waveguides, is their uniplanar construction, in which all of the conductors are aligned on the same side of the substrate.

Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) is a technology for constructing integrated circuits. This book thoroughly discusses the theory, analysis, design, and high-frequency/high-speed characteristics and applications of printed-circuit transmission lines used in integrated circuits and systems.

All the expert guidance you need to understand, build, and operate GPS receivers The Second Edition of this acclaimed publication enables readers to understand and apply the complex operation principles of global positioning system (GPS) receivers.

Adaptive Optics is a method to actively compensate for changing distortions that cause blurring of images. It is used in astronomy to correct for the blurring effect of turbulence in the earth's atmosphere and in vision science to compensate for aberrations in the eye that affect vision.
