DESCRIPTION:
As such Planar Microwave Engineering is suitable for everyday engineering use and for advanced university classes." Pekka Eskelinen, IEEE AES Magazine"Five stars This is an excellent book written in a light, clear manner by a knowledgeable and experienced engineer. Also included with the book is a CD with programs ranging from simulators, such as Puff, LTSprice, Sonnet, EZNEC, and Eagle, to tools such as AppCAD, PLL design, and Smith Chart manipulationI highly recommend taking a look at Planar Microwave Engineering; it will be well worth your time." IEEE Microwave Magazine" a fantastic CD-ROM that is full of all sorts of useful toys to help engineers design their circuits, both microwave and lower frequencies well written, printed and clear This book answers all your practical questions (or wakes you up to some you did not know existed!) in this complex field. Professor Tom Lee's Planar Microwave Engineering: A Practical Guide to Theory, Measurement, and Circuits is a comprehensi

"Quirky, insightful, historical, very readable" according to Steven J. Wojtczuk. You have to like a book that is readable (almost conversational), gives historical insight (how 50&75ohm coax became the "standard"), at times is humorous ("But wait, Quirky, insightful, historical, very readable You have to like a book that is readable (almost conversational), gives historical insight (how 50&75ohm coax became the "standard"), at times is humorous ("But wait, 30 ohms(that gives optimal power handling) does not equal 50, even for relatively large values of 30.") but does not shy away from the some more advanced but interesting (at least to me) derivations of things like estimating fringing capacitance by use of a variational method. This is an excellent book to have fun with and read for insight as a first introduction to some RF topic or to gain further insight and perspective once you have some mastery of. 0 ohms(that gives optimal power handling) does not equal 50, even for relatively large values of Quirky, insightful, historical, very readable You have to like a book that is readable (almost conversational), gives historical insight (how 50&75ohm coax became the "standard"), at times is humorous ("But wait, 30 ohms(that gives optimal power handling) does not equal 50, even for relatively large values of 30.") but does not shy away from the some more advanced but interesting (at least to me) derivations of things like estimating fringing capacitance by use of a variational method.

"very interesting book." according to Kittipong Tripetch. This is a good book to read. It contain basic introduction to microwave integrated circuit such as Smith chart, S-parameter, impedance matching,passive components and detail about tranceiver building block such as mixers,amplifiers, low noise amplifier, oscillator, etc. I think their are some part of this book duplicate with recent textbook of the same author.This book do not contain any exercises and do not cover the architectures of transceiver. (e.g, the missing block between rf power amplifier and microstrip antenna or base station transmitter attenna)Eventhough, I don't finish reading this book. I recommend th. "Excellent Book" according to W. Stubler. So far I've enjoyed this book. I'm a grad student taking a microwave engineering course, this was an additional book recommended by the instructor. I found that there is far more discussion in this book and more steps taken for deriving forumlae, making for an easier to read and interesting book.
This insightful book contains a wealth of circuit layouts, design tips, and practical measurement techniques for building and testing practical gigahertz systems. Throughout the focus is practical, and many worked examples and design projects are included. The book covers everything you need to know to design, build, and test a high-frequency circuit. Microstrip components are discussed, including tricks for extracting good performance from cheap materials. Modern wireless communications hardware is underpinned by RF and microwave design techniques. Connectors and cables are also described, as are discrete passive components, antennas, low-noise amplifiers, oscillators, and frequency synthesizers. Practical measurement techniques are presented in detail, including the use of network analyzers, sampling oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and noise fig
