New, powerful mixed-mode scattering parameter techniques are earning rave reviews among wireless and microwave engineers, because they have proved to be highly effective design tools for optimizing the performance of integrated circuits, components, and systems. Now, for the first time, these techniques are explained in full detail by the inventors themselves. This groundbreaking guide uses the original research and application work in the field to describe mixed-mode S-parameter principles and provide practitioners with expert advice on how to use these tools for their own microwave design projects. The book includes over 150 illustrations that support key topics.
