![]() ![]() ![]() The first chapter consists of a single introductory article that provides important definitions and spectral information. ![]() The book is organized into nine chapters, with all but the first chapter consisting of several articles on related topics. The intended audience also includes microwave and other electrical engineers requiring information outside of their area of expertise as well as managers, marketers, and technical support workers who need better understanding of the fields driving and affected by their decisions. The articles that comprise the handbook provide important information for practicing engineers in industry, government, and academia. The purpose of The RF and Microwave Handbook is to provide a single-volume comprehensive reference for modern microwave and RF engineers. This handbook comes at a time when there is an emerging interest in a broader range of microwave material with more balance than that which has been previously available. Unfortunately, the 40+ years of close association of the microwave industry solely with Defense/Government agencies has left a legacy of microwave literature that is narrowly focused on high performance, low volume applications and is deficient in many areas of critical importance today. The modern microwave and RF engineer is expected to be knowledgeable of customer expectations, market trends, manufacturing technologies, and factory models to a degree that is unprecedented in the history of RF/microwave engineering. Although the physics and mathematics of microwave and RF engineering is the same, the job of the typical microwave engineer has changed dramatically. Even engineers and researchers working in the traditional high performance, low volume microwave markets have seen a shift in emphasis of their work as every effort is made to reduce cost through the re-use of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) parts. Engineering emphasis has changed from optimum performance design to design for manufacturing, from one-of-a-kind parts to high volume production, from performance at all cost to minimum cost with acceptable performance, from widest possible bandwidth to regulated narrow band, etc. The explosive growth of commercial wireless markets has not only altered the Defense/nonDefense work balance, but also brought about significant shifts in the perspective and focus of working microwave and RF engineers. The field of microwave engineering has undergone a radical transformation in recent years as the Defense and Government work effort that once dominated the industry is now exceeded by commercial wireless efforts.
