Description
An in-depth look at continuing advances in the field of microwave filters-the basic building blocks of any communication system
There have been significant advances in the synthesis and physical realization of microwave filter networks, but until now, no book has provided a coherent and readable description of system requirements and constraints, fundamental considerations in theory and design, up-to-date synthesis techniques, or EM-based design tools. Microwave Filters for Communication Systems fills the need for such a book, providing comprehensive coverage of microwave filter design and applications for communication systems.
Distinct features of the book include:
*
System considerations in filter design
*
General formulation and synthesis of filter functions
*
Synthesis techniques for low-pass prototype filters
*
Application of modern EM-based design techniques
*
Design and tradeoffs of various multiplexer configurations
*
Computer-aided filter tuning
*
High-power considerations for terrestrial and space applications
This topical book provides students and practitioners with a strong theoretical understanding of filter design, as well as the EM-based tools being used in the optimization of microwave filter and multiplexing networks.

Reviews / Votes
"Provides by far the most comprehensive coverage available of powerful design techniques involving the use of coupling matrices. This is a book that every microwave filter design specialist will want to study and have on their bookshelf. It could also be the text for an advanced course on filter design."
