Microwave Active Circuit Analysis and Design teaches the skills and knowledge required by today's RF and microwave engineer in a concise, structured, and systematic way.

The book reflects modern developments in the field, and focuses on active circuit design covering the latest devices and design techniques, from electromagnetic and transmission line theory and S-parameters through to amplifier and oscillator design, techniques for low noise and broadband design.

This book focuses on analysis and design, including up-to-date material on MMIC design techniques.
