Product Description

Product Description

Gain the Skill to Design Modern Wireless Circuits and Systems!

This fully updated and revised edition of the bestselling Complete Wireless Design takes a uniquely practical approach to designing complex receivers and transmitters found in advanced analog and digital wireless communication systems, right down to the circuit level.

This authoritative book uses real-life examples to provide a solid foundation in the subject, and simple algebra to guide you through specific analysis and design processes. In addition, you'll find all the information you'll need for performing full circuit and electromagnetic software simulations to ensure the optimum performance of all completed projects. Plus, this in-depth step-by-step guide comes with a CD-ROM containing new simulation and design software. Engineers and technicians will not find a more thorough, practical book than Complete Wireless Design.

Updates include:

  • Fully worked out design samples, complete with RF simulation results
  • Special sections on power amplifier design and printed circuit board layout
  • Brand-new chapters covering antenna design and RF test and measurement
  • Tips and techniques on performing accurate RF circuit simulations
  • How to design for EMI control to pass FCC product testing
  • The latest software for use in wireless design

This COMPLETELY updated edition teaches you how to design:

  • Amplifiers
  • Oscillators
  • Frequency synthesizers
  • Filters
  • Mixers
  • Antennas
  • Support circuits
  • Communication systems

Book Description

This book will assist any engineer or technician to design--down to the circuit level--the complex wireless receivers and transmitters of modern digital communications systems. Unlike many wireless design books, Sayre's doesn't simply provide pre-designed circuits and expect the reader to modify them for their own applications or present overly complex equations and derivations. Instead, this book allows readers to design cutting edge wireless components and circuits using simple algebra, as well as analyze complex modern communications systems. Through many real world examples the reader will get a solid grounding in designing some of today's most cutting edge wireless circuit systems, as well as the ability to perform full circuit and electromagnetic software simulations to confirm in-spec operation and optimum performance of the completed wireless designs. --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

Format:Hardcover
I work in wireless design at 173MHz.
The ideas in the book are well communicated. The information shows the important circuit design steps required for workable solutions.
In particular the sections on "small signal amplifiers" and the "support circuit design" (containing useful circuits) will be well used.
This book is a valuable practical resource for all aspects of receiver design.
A purchase i'm very pleased with!

The wireless design programs alone are worth the price! 9 Jun 2001
By John Blanchard - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
The free wireless circuit design and simulation software that comes with this book have proven extremely valuable to me, unlike many such programs that come with other electronics books. I am able to build a complete amplifier, filter, or oscillator and simulate it with one of the enclosed programs, Puff. This ups my confidence level that the design will function in real life. The other program, AppCad, will actually automatically design FET and bipolar amplifier bias circuits, detectors, microstrip, systems design calcs, etc. I hav'nt tried the EasyPLL phased locked loop design program or the Sonnet microwave simulation software.

Mr. Sayre's book has become one of the more popular ones on rf circuit design for a very good reason: It presents its material in such a way that even a software engineer such as myself can design many of the various bit and pieces of a voice or data radio by just using this one book. As far as I am concerned this is really an achievement, and is valuable to all who are interested in radio design from the low MHz to the high GHz regions. It covers a very large range of information needed on RF engineering, and not only discrete level circuit design, but also systems design, digital and analog modulation, testing and troubleshooting, PCB layout, propagation, EMI, prototyping, etc. It is a great rf book with a large variety of indispensable designs and formulas.

Excellent book on Wireless Design 10 May 2004
By "hsh77" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Circuits and Wireless Communication designers and Enthusiasts....ENJOY!

A true one-of-a-kind guide to wireless "design". It guides you through the design process step-by-step. The author presents design procedure for every circuit that make up a complete wireless system. He also provides design hints, tips and tricks. Primarily for Electrical Engineers and circuit and electronics enthusiasts, this book is a must for its primary audience. There's so much valuable information and experience in this book you won't find anywhere else.

The book is not intended for people with no electronics or circuit design background. People without such background will find the book difficult to follow and comprehend. Communication designers and engineers, however, will be extremely delighted with this book.
I'm greatly thankful for the author for his excellent book.

The "What you always wanted to know" Design Book 20 April 2004
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
It is not often that you find such a good book that packs such a lot of helpful design information in one volume. Not only does the author get straight to the point without boring you with complicated mathematics and derivations like in some books (there are enough clogging my bookshelf), but also his simple formulas with short and powerful theory is enough to get the job 99% done. He proves that you don't have to get into very elaborate and complicated math routines to get a working design on the table. Sure there are instances where that is needed but as he explains in the book most of the number crunching and optimization can be done by CAD programs these days, leaving it unnecessary for example to hand calculate filter values by hand in these modern times. It is also nice to have a variety of programs included on the CD-rom. Even as a designer for the last 15+ years this book "taught an old dog some new tricks". This will help especially the rookie designer to get working designs in a short time and to avoid pitfalls. Definitely one to have on your bookshelf!
