"Do you want to design a wireless transmitter or receiver for hand-held telephones? Have you wondered why the printed circuit wires on high-frequency circuits don't always run in a straight line? This valuable text will answer all of your questions regarding component parasitics and circuit characterization for rf/microwave amplifier, oscillator, and filter circuit design and analysis. You will understand why capacitors act as inductors and vice versa and why amplifiers work like oscillators, while oscillators for local area networks work more like local area heaters. Application of the information in Introduction to Microwave Circuits will reduce design-cycle time and costs, markedly increasing the probability of first-time success in printed circuit or monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) design. Several approaches are taken into consideration, such as the effects of currents on the ground plane, bypass and coupling capacitors, and nonlinear effects in linear circuits. Featured topics include: * Incorporation of component parasitics in the design cycle * Closed form solution to oscillator design * Odd mode stability analysis * PIN diode analysis for high-power switching applications An integrated design example of a 1.25 GHz amplifier, oscillator, and filter printed circuit is also included, which could be useful in printed circuit board designs from tens of megahertz to tens of gigahertz. Introduction to Microwave Circuits provides the tools necessary to analyze or synthesize microwave circuits. This text is an essential reference for undergraduate students, microwave engineers, and administrators. Also, it will assist experienced designers in other fields to meet the current rapid expansion of communication system applications and work effectively in microwave circuit design. About the Author Robert J. Weber began his prolific career in the Solid State Research Laboratory at the Collins Radio Company, later a part of Rockwell International. For 25 years, he worked on advanced development and applied research in the one- to ten-gigahertz frequency range and received several distinguished awards for his valuable contributions to the field. Dr. Weber is involved in ongoing experimental research in integrating microwave circuits with other devices such as MEMS, chemical sensors, and electro-optics. Also, he teaches microwave circuit design and fiber-optics communications at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Iowa State University. Dr. Weber is an IEEE Fellow."

Pozar's new edition of Microwave Engineering includes more material on active circuits, noise, nonlinear effects, and wireless systems. Chapters on noise and nonlinear distortion, and active devices have been added along with the coverage of noise and more material on intermodulation distortion and related nonlinear effects. On active devices, there's more updated material on bipolar junction and field effect transistors. New and updated material on wireless communications systems, including link budget, link margin, digital modulation methods, and bit error rates is also part of the new edition. Other new material includes a section on transients on transmission lines, the theory of power waves, a discussion of higher order modes and frequency effects for microstrip line, and a discussion of how to determine unloaded Q from resonator measurements.--Publisher information.

As we enter the new millennium, engineers who provide the world with the vast number and types of communications apparatus needed can no longer confine themselves to either analog or digital design tasks. These devices require elements of both. Yet, those without recent graduate degrees in electronics engineering may find serious gaps in their knowledge. In the very near future, limited knowledge of high frequency effects, scattering coefficients, and practical application of resonant circuits may seriously limit one's usefulness to an employer. High Frequency and Microwave Circuit Design fills in these gaps with concise, practical treatments that allow a smooth, rapid transition from medium to microwave frequencies. The author uses an easy, straightforward style to demystify some of the useful techniques that communications engineers need. He covers the practical aspects of impedance matching, noise, oscillators, amplitude and frequency modulation, and antennas. The Appendix offers helpful formulas that enable the reader to solve many of the impedance matching problems directly on a calculator.

This book offers a comprehensive overview of design and analysis of microwave devices and circuits for 5G and beyond wireless communication systems. It focuses on modern microwave antennas, filters, metamaterials, and MIMO systems. It includes a design approach based on Artificial Intelligence and the practical use of microwave devices and circuits in commercial, medical, and military applications. Microwave Devices and Circuits for Advanced Wireless Communications: Design and Analysis explores the performance of microwave devices and circuits by highlighting the difficulties encountered by researchers and designers such as latency, interoperability, wireless coexistence, data streaming, safety, security, and privacy. The book explores the most important aspects of antenna design, including radiation pattern control, impedance matching with bandwidth improvement, and gain enhancement. It also examines different categories of metasurfaces, including frequency-selective surfaces (FSS) and electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structures, and their distinct roles in antenna design. Additionally, the book examines concepts such as ultra-wideband (UWB) radar for 5G millimeter wave applications, and advanced techniques such as synthetic aperture radar (SAR), beam-forming, compressed sensing, and diffraction tomography for enabling high-resolution imaging across wider application areas. The authors also present an overview on applying machine learning (ML) techniques to advanced wireless communication for signal-processing tasks such as signal denoising, equalization, and modulation recognition. They then discuss the potential significance of UAV communication systems in achieving seamless connection, quality of service (QoS), as well as the difficulties and potential remedies involved in building dependable networks using UAVs. Throughout the book the authors offer a critical assessment of the strengths and limitations of each topic and approach presented, thus providing valuable guidance for future research in this exciting field. This book will be helpful for graduate students, researchers, and engineers working in the area of design and reliability of circuits for microwave and communication systems.

While many articles have been written on microwave devices, a great majority of them are prepared for specialists dealing in specific aspects of microwave engineering. At the same time, material at a fundamental level in tutorial form is extremely limited, especially for stu dents who need to acquire basic knowledge in the field. Individuals seeking to gain a prelim inary understanding of microwave circuits are usually relegated with little success to the end less search from one reference source to another. For non-experts, sequential derivations of basic relations are rarely available and extremely difficult to locate. The purpose of this volume is to collect in one place the essential fundamental principles for a group of microwave devices. The chosen devices are those which form the basic modules found in practical microwave systems. Thus, these devices provide the crucial build ing blocks in common microwave systems, and their inherent characteristics are also the basis of some of the fundamental concepts in more complex devices. The material is presented in a continuous, self-contained manner. With the appropriate background, readers should be able to follow and understand the contents without the need for additional references.

CD-ROM contains: PUFF 2.1 for construction and evaluation of circuits.
