This second edition of the highly acclaimed RF PowerAmplifiers has been thoroughly revised and expanded to reflectthe latest challenges associated with power transmitters used incommunications systems. With more rigorous treatment of manyconcepts, the new edition includes a unique combination ofclass-tested analysis and industry-proven design techniques.
Radio frequency (RF) power amplifiers are the fundamentalbuilding blocks used in a vast variety of wireless communicationcircuits, radio and TV broadcasting transmitters, radars, wirelessenergy transfer, and industrial processes. Through a combination oftheory and practice, RF Power Amplifiers, Second Edition provides asolid understanding of the key concepts, the principle ofoperation, synthesis, analysis, and design of RF poweramplifiers.
This extensive update boasts: up to date end of chaptersummaries; review questions and problems; an expansion on keyconcepts; new examples related to real-world applicationsillustrating key concepts and brand new chapters covering'hot topics' such as RF LC oscillators and dynamicpower supplies.
Carefully edited for superior readability, this work remains anessential reference for research & development staff and designengineers. Senior level undergraduate and graduate electricalengineering students will also find it an invaluable resource withits practical examples & summaries, review questions and end ofchapter problems.
Key features:
* A fully revised solutions manual is now hosted ona companion website alongside new simulations.
* Extended treatment of a broad range of topologies of RFpower amplifiers.
* In-depth treatment of state-of-the art of moderntransmitters and a new chapter on oscillators.
* Includes problem-solving methodology, step-by-stepderivations and closed-form design equations withillustrations.
