Description: "This conversational, hands-on guide provides a solid circuit design and analysis resource for communications electronic applications, helping users become successful designers of useful communications products. Providing solid coverage of theory and engineering principles, it uses algebra-based mathematics through calculus and a logical design-and-analysis approach, and now includes the very latest information on cellular and personal communication systems (PCS), digital communications, integrated circuit transceivers, and more. "Provides a broad-based, real-world industry orientation by incorporating examples, standards and techniques from a number of different technology disciplines - including RF, microwave, optics, and digital transmission. Contains numerous derivations, examples, and problems, and provides computer analysis sections in every chapter to expose readers to the use of Spice, MicroCAP, and Touchstone software. Now offers a complete update on modern digital modulation and circuits for cellular and PCS - covering cell system structure and size requirements for propagation and interference, digital modulation efficiency and impairments, Nyquist filtering, I/Q modulators, MSK, multiple access techniques, and transceiver design. Also includes a handy new appendix on Abbreviations and Acronyms.
