Advanced RF Engineering for Wireless Systems and Networks

By Arshad Hussain

The ultimate guide to next-generation network systems and network design With the explosive growth in RF and wireless technologies, there is a critical shortage of skilled engineers to design and operate today's vast communications networks. Advanced RF Engineering for Wireless Systems and Networks provides a multidimensional primer for professionals involved in the design of next-generation wireless and satellite communications systems and networks. This essential work offers systematic, hands-on guidance to wireless system design, clearly demonstrating how to design second- and third-generation systems from the ground up. Written in an easy-to-understand, tutorial style, the book: * Covers the latest in the design of filters, amplifiers, RF switches, and oscillators for 2G and 3G technologies * Includes a detailed RF treatment of the WLAN aspects * Introduces the completely new topic of services over GPRS areas * Clarifies the difference between 1G, 2G, and 3G systems * Outlines strategies for migrating from 2G to 3G technologies * Bridges between engineering and networking concepts * Provides useful theoretical and design problems at the end of chapters
