Microphone Engineering Handbook

This is a comprehensive book for engineers, technicians, students and anyone else concerned with the design and use of microphones. It presents up-to-date technology, via the use of diagrams, photographs and tables. It fills a long felt gap in the literature as it comprises an introductory survey of the field followed by 10 chapters each written by an acknowledged international expert, covering measurements, communications, sound recording and reproduction, stereophony, broadcasting and TV. Recent advances concerned with interfacing are dealt with. The latest wireless microphone and infrared systems are covered as well as a chapter on low noise microphone preamplifier imput circuits.
