Download or read book Handbook of Microwave Component Measurements written by Joel P. Dunsmore and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-08-15 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides state-of-the-art coverage for making measurements on RF and Microwave Components, both active and passive. A perfect reference for R&D and Test Engineers, with topics ranging from the best practices for basic measurements, to an in-depth analysis of errors, correction methods, and uncertainty analysis, this book provides everything you need to understand microwave measurements. With primary focus on active and passive measurements using a Vector Network Analyzer, these techniques and analysis are equally applicable to measurements made with Spectrum Analyzers or Noise Figure Analyzers. The early chapters provide a theoretical basis for measurements complete with extensive definitions and descriptions of component characteristics and measurement parameters. The latter chapters give detailed examples for cases of cable, connector and filter measurements; low noise, high-gain and high power amplifier measurements, a wide range of mixer and frequency converter measurements, and a full examination of fixturing, de-embedding, balanced measurements and calibration techniques. The chapter on time-domain theory and measurements is the most complete treatment on the subject yet presented, with details of the underlying mathematics and new material on time domain gating. As the inventor of many of the methods presented, and with 30 years as a development engineer on the most modern measurement platforms, the author presents unique insights into the understanding of modern measurement theory. Key Features: Explains the interactions between the device-under-test (DUT) and the measuring equipment by demonstrating the best practices for ascertaining the true nature of the DUT, and optimizing the time to set up and measure Offers a detailed explanation of algorithms and mathematics behind measurements and error correction Provides numerous illustrations (e.g. block-diagrams for circuit connections and measurement setups) and practical examples on real-world devices, which can provide immediate benefit to the reader Written by the principle developer and designer of many of the measurement methods described This book will be an invaluable guide for RF and microwave R&D and test engineers, satellite test engineers, radar engineers, power amplifier designers, LNA designers, and mixer designers. University researchers and graduate students in microwave design and test will also find this book of interest.

Download or read book The Technician s EMI Handbook written by Joseph Carr and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2000-06-15 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hands-on guide to finding the sources of electromagnetic interference and then fixing the problems. Includes basic theory of EMI as well as detailed explanations of why this problem is becoming more serious as the international scope of the communications and electronics industries grow. This book is not a textbook, but rather a handbook that will become a constant source of reference for anyone who runs into trouble with EMI. Includes chapters on grounding, circuit shielding and filtering, preventing EMI in circuit design, as well as EMI sources such as power lines, transmitters, television, consumer electronics, telephones, automobiles, and the ever-frustrating mystery EMI. There are very few other books available even though EMI is constantly discussed and cursed. Most of the books on the market are about how to prevent EMI in circuit design or approaches to understanding the theory behind EMI. Though this information is important, especially to an engineering audience, these books hold no value at all to the technicians and hands-on practitioners in the fields of communications and servicing.These savvy professionals know that the book they are looking for and need is just not on the market. To get the information they need, this group is forced to read every magazine article they can find on the subject and rely on the advice of other professionals whether through technician groups or newsgroups. This book fills a void in the telecommunications and electronics industries by providing practical troubleshooting information. - Addresses the technician's needs and interests - Written by an eminent authority in the field - Covers correction and prevention of problems with EMI

Download or read book The RF Transmission Systems Handbook written by Jerry C. Whitaker and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it is one of the oldest sectors of electronics and now somewhat taken for granted, radio frequency transmission literally changed our world. Today, it is still the backbone of myriad applications, from broadcasting to electronic counter-measures. The wide variety of hardware in use means that those working in the field must be familiar with a multitude of principles and applications, but finding an up-to-date, comprehensive source for this background material has been difficult, if not impossible. The RF Transmission Systems Handbook addresses the underlying concepts, operation, and maintenance of high-power RF devices, transmission lines, and antennas for broadcast, scientific, and industrial use. Focusing on devices and systems that produce more than one kilowatt of output power, the handbook explores the following major topics: Applications: The common uses of radio frequency energy Fundamental principles: The basic technologies, concepts, and techniques used in RF transmission Power vacuum devices: The principles and applications of gridded vacuum tubes and microwave power devices Solid-state power devices: The operating parameters of semiconductor-based power devices RF components and transmission lines: The operation of hardware used to combine and conduct RF power Antenna systems: The different types of antennas and their basic operating parameters Troubleshooting: Basic troubleshooting techniques and the operation of important test instruments Contrary to the perceptions of many, RF technology remains a dynamic field that continues to advance to higher power levels and higher frequencies. Those who specify, install, and maintain RF equipment will welcome this reference that uniquely serves their needs.
Download or read book Practical RF Power Design Techniques written by Irving M. Gottlieb and published by TAB/Electronics. This book was released on 1993-03-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Useful information on radio-frequency circuit design is hard to find. Most of it comes in the form of highly technical manufacturer's literature & bulky math-oriented textbooks, or from oversimplified books for amateurs & hobbyists. So, most electronics practitioners end up having to learn RF techniques by trial & error. Now, thanks to Irving Gottlieb's Practical RF Power Design Techniques, circuit designers can have at their fingertips all the hands-on instruction they need to translate RF theory into functioning hardware. Gottlieb thoroughly explains the theory behind RF circuit design & operation. But, unlike other books, he doesn't stop there. He supports his discussion of principles & formulas with examples taken from real-world applications. He uses actual values for electronic components currently on the market, instead of hypothetical figures that are hard for readers to visualize. And, by concentrating on general uses that aren't affected by changes in industry standards, Gottlieb ensures that the book will enjoy a long shelf life.
