Description
Finally, here is a single volume containing all of the engineering information needed to successfully design and implement any type of
wireless network! Author Dan Dobkin covers every aspect of RF engineering necessary for wireless networks. He begins with a review of
essential math and electromagnetic theory followed by thorough discussions of multiplexing, modulation types, bandwidth, link budgets,
network concepts, radio system architectures, RF amplifiers, mixers and frequency conversion, filters, single-chip radio systems, antenna
theory and designs, signal propagation, as well as planning and implementing wireless networks for both indoor and outdoor environments.
The
appendices contain such vital data as U.S., European, and Japanese technical and regulatory standards for wireless networks, measurements
in wireless networks, reflection and matching of transmission lines, determining power density, and much more. The accompanying companion
website includes useful software tools such as a link budget calculator, a Smith Chart calculator and plotter, and radio chain analysis
utilities. No matter what type of wireless network you design-Bluetooth, UWB, or even metropolitan area network (MAN)-this book is the
one reference you can’t do without!
Audience:
WLAN designers, networking professionals, RF and wireless engineers, IT managers and professionals, electronics engineering students
