Anotace:

The first part contains a basic but systematical description of fundamental types of analog and digital modulations. A description of the building blocks of radio communication systems and basic types of radio receivers follows. A description of passive and active elements with non-distributed and distributed parameters follows from the point of view their usage in radio circuits. Attention is devoted to contemporary structures with distributed parameters, microwave transistors of various types, power unipolar transistors. A description of radio function blocks is a fundamental part of the subject: radio-frequency amplifiers and their noise properties, distributed amplifiers, power amplifiers, oscillators, phase noise, crystal oscillators, mixers, double and multiply-balanced mixers.
