Microwave and RF Design: A Systems Approach
I have just finished reading this book. It is a tour de force and I am sure it will prove to be very successful. It provides very broad coverage of modern microwave and RF engineering with appropriate levels of detail and is well illustrated. I particularly like the treatment of communications theory, practice and systems at the beginning of the book, which nicely balances the microwave theory and techniques which follow in the later chapters. This is a real reference text for the student and professional alike - but it's easy to read too! --Christopher Snowden, Vice-Chancellor and Chief Executive, University of SurreyI chose the Steer text for my course because it provides the most coherent integration of the many diverse components of RF technology in a very readable and understandable manner. --Robert Hay - ECE Department, Boise State University
