Microwave Circuit Design Using Linear and Nonlinear Techniques

This is the second edition of a successful book on microwave circuit design. The book covers all aspects of transistors, from their intrinsic and circuit properties to circuit design techniques for maximizing their performance in communication and radar systems. All original chapters are updated and revised to account for modern technology. This book covers all levels of microwave circuit design, presenting computer aided methods for linear and nonlinear designs used in the production of microwave amplifiers, oscillators, and mixers. The authors provide all of the mathematics and practical design information necessary to carry out the design of hybrid and monolithic integrated circuits. · rf/microwave systems. · lumped and distributed elements. · active devices. · two-port networks. · impedance matching. · microwave filters. · noise in linear two-ports. · small- and large-signal amplifier design. · power amplifier design. · oscillator design. · microwave mixer design. · rf switches and attenuators. · microwave computer-aided workstations foor mmic requirements.
