Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)You should ignore the breathless blurb headline on the back cover that claims "The only source for practical, real world information on RF measurements for cellular phones and wireless data systems". Surely there must be other texts.
But this is certainly a well written one. It starts from basics about RF circuits and the various digital modulation techniques. Just as importantly, it explains various measurement devices like power meters and VNA and VSA. The up to date nature of the RF engineer's toolkit is a valuable synopsis.
The text also takes you into the semiconductor structures currently used, like a HEMT [High Electron Mobility Transistor]. Power amplifiers are given good coverage.
At a higher level, simple antenna principles are explained, as well as how to assemble a wireless communication system. Actual standards like TDMA and WiMax, however, are only briefly dealt with.

The only source for practical, real-world information on RF measurements for cellular phones and wireless data systems
It is predicted that by the year 2010, all digital wireless communications equipment—including cellular, PCS, and 3G phones; wireless LANs; GPS navigation systems; and DBS TV—will have data transfer capabilities of over 1 Mbps. Now, as this significant turning point quickly approaches, this book presents everything industry professionals need to know about the Radio Frequency (RF) measurements and tests that must be made on this new generation of digital wireless communications equipment.
Presenting just enough theory as is absolutely required for comprehension, RF Measurements for Cellular Phones and Wireless Data Systems:
Provides a review of basic RF principles and terminology
Describes RF measurement equipment, including signal generators, power meters, frequency meters, vector network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, and vector signal analyzers
Explains the RF devices that are used in cellular phones and wireless data transmission equipment—how they work, what their critical performance parameters are, how they're tested, and typical test results
Illustrates the testing of RF devices and systems with digitally modulated signals that represent the voice, video, or data that the RF wave is carrying
RF Measurements for Cellular Phones and Wireless Data Systems has been written to serve as the industry standard for RF measurements and testing. It is an indispensable resource for engineers, technicians, and managers involved in the construction, installation, or maintenance of cell phones and wireless data equipment.
