Based on real-world international experience leading technical teams of engineers, project managers and software developers, the stories, ideas and practical examples in this down-to-earth guide, are provided to help and inspire you to become a better leader.
The recent explosion of the RF wireless integrated circuits (IC), coupled with higher operating speeds in digital IC's has made accurate RF testing of IC's vital. This ground-breaking resource explains the fundamentals of performing accurate RF measurements of die and packages. It offers you practical advice on how to use coplanar probes and test fixtures in the lab for RF on-wafer die and package characterization. It also details how to build separate RF test systems for noise, high-power, and thermal testing as well as de-embed the test system's parasitic effects to get the die's RF performance. This book is a handy, practical resource for RFIC and MMIC designers as well as high-frequency digital IC designers, IC test engineers, and IC manufacturing test engineers.
This book gives you – in one comprehensive and practical resource -- everything you need to successfully design modern and sophisticated power amplifiers at mmWave frequencies. The book provides an in-depth treatment of the design methodology for MMIC power amplifiers, then brings you step by step through the various phases of design, from the selection of technology and preliminary architecture considerations, to the effective design of the matching circuits and conversion of electrical-to-electromagnetic models. Detailed figures and numerous practical applications are included to help you gain valuable insights into these technologies and learn to identify the best path to a successful design. You’ll be guided through a range of new mmWave power applications that show particular promise to support new 5G systems, while mastering the use of GaN technology that continues to dominate the power mmWave applications due to its high power, gain, and efficiency. This is a valuable resource for power amplifier design engineers, technicians, industry R&D staff, and anyone getting into the area of power MMICs who wants to learn how to design at mmWave frequencies.
For decades, microwave radios in the 6 to 50 GHz bands have been providing wireless communications. Exploring this area, this resource offers the details on multigigabit wireless communications.
CDMA is the second most widely deployed technology in the world with more than 100 million subscribers worldwide and is projected to reach 280 million subscribers by 2006. CDMA 2000 1x was deployed in year 2000 and CDMA 2000 1xEVDO is being deployed this year. CDMA 2000 is the natural migration for CDMA IS-95 networks and some of the TDMA networks. CDMA technology is complex to design due to its inherent adaptive characteristic and the introduction of data requires a complete new way of analysing the network from traffic characteristics to performance requirements. The authors bring a wealth of experience in developing solutions for wireless design at CelPlan Technologies, Inc. since 1992. T...
The practicalities of implementing IBL can be a daunting prospect. Using a wealth of examples, relevant theories, models and research, this book takes the reader through the logistics of every stage of implementation.
