From Book News, Inc.
Pozar (University of Massachusetts) examines the operation and design of wireless communication systems from the perspective of the radio frequency or microwave subsystems. This senior level textbook covers antennas, propagation, fading, noise characterization of systems and components, receiver design, digital modulation methods, bit error rates, filters, amplifiers, mixers, oscillators, and phase- locked loops.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Book Description
This book offers a quantitative and design-oriented presentation of the analog RF aspects of modern wireless telecommunications and data transmission systems from the antenna to the baseband level. It takes an integrated approach to topics such as antennas and proagation, microwave systems and circuits and communication systems.

From the Back Cover
Undersztand every aspect of modern wireless system design
From the antenna to the baseband level - David Pozar's MICROWAVE AND RF DESIGN OF WIRELESS SYSTEMS offers ther most completer and up-to-date presentation of the operation and design of modern wireless telecommunication systems.
Integrating a wide range of topics into one design-oriented framework, the text covers antennas and propagation, noise characterization of systems and components, digital modulation methods, and the design and operation of wireless components such as filters, amplifiers, mixers, and phase-locked loops. This comprehensive approach helps readers understand how the various technologies involved in wireless systems are interrelated.
The text builds on a strong foundation of fundamental principles, and offers many practical examples and design problems. You'll learn how to: Design modern wireless telecommunication and data transmission systems. Analyze a complete radio system, from the transmitter through the receiver front-end. Evaluate factors such as carrier-to-noise ratio, receiver noise figure, intermodulation products, spurious mixer products, image frequencies, dynamic range, Rayleigh fading, bit error rate, and maximum data rate.'Solve real-world, design-oriented problems.
