This book gives a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of power system protection, covering theory, analytical and design principles, equipment design and application and protection management.

This book covers issues involved in improving the present range of systems and technology of optical fibre based telecommunications services operating with analogue-sourced signals.

This book gives a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of power system protection, covering theory, analytical and design principles, equipment design and application and protection management.

This book collects together in one volume a number of suggested control engineering solutions which are intended to be representative of solutions applicable to a broad class of control problems.

This book explains the basic principles behind ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) technology, focusing especially on network aspects for the use of ATM by the communications industry.

This book describes a novel general entire-domain method for the analysis of metallic antennas and scatterers which enables the solution of a very wide class of problems to be obtained using computers of relatively modest capability.

This book explains the various environmental and health hazards due to electricity in its many forms, and sets out methods and practices to reduce risks.

Coverage includes broadband ISDN technology, local area networks (LANs), network management and the strategies and techniques available for the provision of data communications.

This is a balanced biography of one of the 20th Century's outstanding inventors, published to coincide with the 75th anniversary of Baird's first public demonstration of a rudimentary television system.

In the late 1920s, John Logie Baird - considered to be the inventor of television - was experimenting with 'phonovision' in which he attempted to record television signals onto gramophone discs. This unique book sheds new light on the activities of John Logie Baird and the definition and invention of television itself.

This book comprehensively covers the areas of materials growth, characterisation and descriptions for the new devices in silicon-heterostructure, material systems.

New techniques and technologies for sensors are developing fast and being applied in a wide range of fields for measurement and instrumentation, both for research and commercial purposes. This book aims to provide advanced students and practising engineers with a selective tour of highlights in the topical field of sensors for measurement.

A complete reference on modern flight control methods for fixed-wing aircraft, this authoritative book includes contributions from an international group of experts in their respective specialised fields, largely from industry.

This book reviews some of the underlying technologies and also some recent applications in a number of fields. In a world increasingly overloaded with data of varying quality, not least via the Internet, computerised tools are becoming useful to 'mine' useful data from the mass available.

This book provides a practical and comprehensive analysis of control systems for boilers and HRSGs (heat-recovery steam generators) in a variety of applications from waste-to-energy plants through to combined-cycle gas-turbine power stations (CCGTs).

With increasing operating frequencies of digital electronic devices, limitations are becoming evident in existing modelling techniques. This book acts as a bridge between the mathematical abilities of the pure EM theorist and those of the FET circuit modeller.

This book examines integrated circuits, systems and transceivers for wireless and mobile communications. It covers the most recent developments in key RF, IF, analogue, mixed-signal components and single-chip transceivers in CMOS technology.

Aiming to give an introduction to the basic theory of digital signal processing and analysis, this book starts by providing the theoretical background and principal methods for one-dimensional signals before building to more complex signals.

This book covers the basic theoretical, algorithmic and real-time aspects of digital signal processing (DSP). Detailed information is provided on off-line, real-time and DSP programming and the reader is effortlessly guided through advanced topics such as DSP hardware design, FIR and IIR filter design and difference equation manipulation.

This fascinating book explores the technological challenges and applications of providing fast, 'always-on' internet connections to the home. Current delivery mechanisms of broadband into and around the home are explored in depth.

An understanding of the basic concepts of quality and its management is essential for the professional management of Quality of Service (QoS) in telecommunications. This book is essential reading for all those interested in QoS issues.

This book provides an introductory text which will enable the reader to both appreciate the essential characteristics of stepping motor systems and understand how these characteristics are being exploited in the continuing development of new motors, drives and controllers.

This book describes the stage-by-stage creation and development, from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day, of the remarkable global communications technologies that have profoundly transformed the way that people live and work.

Many organisations are transforming their businesses through the development of information and communications technologies. The security of this e-commerce is now a key enabler for businesses.

This book will enable engineering organisations to manage their valuable knowledge resources and the people who possess them. The authors show that the loss of experience and knowledge base due to staff turnover erodes corporate culture.

This book presents an overview of local access networks and discusses new emerging technologies. Underpinning much of the evolving communications technology is the local access itself, both in traditional form of copper pairs but increasingly too through the use of new fibre, radio and copper systems.

This book provides systematic guidance on how to sense and avoid the causes of IT project failure at every step, from project conception to the disposal of the system after a long and beneficial operational life. The author takes the reader through every stage of the process, pointing out pitfalls and suggesting tactics as you go.

Charles Wheatstone was one of the leading electrical engineers of the mid-nineteenth century. This fascinating biography celebrates the bicentenary of his birth, and draws on information about the family business as well as letters, including correspondence with Cooke and Faraday.

This book presents the established fundamentals in the area of active sound and vibration control and explores new and emerging technologies and techniques. The latest theoretical, algorithmic and practical applications are covered.

This book is suitable for those wishing to gain the flavour of adaptive control, although those already familiar with selftuning techniques will find the problem solutions discussed to be most attractive.
