| Description: |
Microwave
devices, circuits and subsystems are used in modern microwave
communication systems, including fixed and mobile microwave
communication services as well as terrestrial cellular applications.
Together with the forthcoming second volume Microwave Communication
Systems this text will form the basis of a trans--European MSc degree
in Microwave Communications Engineering. A consortium of four EU
universities within the EU SOCRATES programme is currently developing
this degree, and this text will support the course as an open distance
learning resource. The course will combine coverage of modern microwave
communication systems with a detailed treatment of the circuit design
techniques needed to implement the subsystems from which these systems
are built. A self contained reference and tutorial work, this text
offers unrivalled comprehensive coverage of microwave communications *
Up--to--date and wide--ranging coverage of modern microwave
communication * Uniquely combines coverage of modern microwave
communication systems with detailed treatment of circuit design
techniques * Written by an extensive range of experts in microwave
engineering from the UK, Italy, Spain and Greece Primarily aimed at
postgraduate students in the microwave and communications engineering
subject area and practising engineering in the microwave and wireless
communications industries, this text would also appeal to senior
undergraduates in communications engineering for its thorough coverage
of this rapidly evolving field.
