A comprehensive source for microwave and wireless circuit design, the Commercial Wireless Circuits and Components Handbook reviews the fundamentals of transmitters and receivers, then presents detailed chapters on individual circuit types. It also covers packaging, large and small signal characterization, and high volume testing techniques for both devices and circuits. This handbook not only provides important information for engineers working with wireless RF or microwave circuitry, it also serves as an excellent source for those requiring information outside of their area of expertise, such as managers, marketers, and technical support workers who need a better understanding of the fields driving their decisions.
By 1990 the wireless revolution had begun. In late 2000, Mike Golio gave the world a significant tool to use in this revolution: The RF and Microwave Handbook. Since then, wireless technology spread across the globe with unprecedented speed, fueled by 3G and 4G mobile technology and the proliferation of wireless LANs. Updated to reflect this tremendous growth, the second edition of this widely embraced, bestselling handbook divides its coverage conveniently into a set of three books, each focused on a particular aspect of the technology. Six new chapters cover WiMAX, broadband cable, bit error ratio (BER) testing, high-power PAs (power amplifiers), heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs), as well as an overview of microwave engineering. Over 100 contributors, with diverse backgrounds in academic, industrial, government, manufacturing, design, and research reflect the breadth and depth of the field. This eclectic mix of contributors ensures that the coverage balances fundamental technical issues with the important business and marketing constraints that define commercial RF and microwave engineering. Focused chapters filled with formulas, charts, graphs, diagrams, and tables make the information easy to locate and apply to practical cases. The new format, three tightly focused volumes, provides not only increased information but also ease of use. You can find the information you need quickly, without wading through material you don’t immediately need, giving you access to the caliber of data you have come to expect in a much more user-friendly format.
A practical retirement planning resource for engineers, scientists, and mathematicians In 1995, Dr. Mike Golio, an electrical engineer, became seriously interested in planning for early retirement. In 2003, at the age of 49, he and his wife achieved their goal of financial independence and retired. Engineering Your Retirement is an outgrowth of his research. Whether retirement is imminent or many years off, this valuable guide's straightforward, analytical approach to financial independence answers the critical questions to achieving successful, comfortable, and meaningful retirement. Written specifically for professionals in the engineering, science, and math fields, Engineering Your Retirement examines such important questions as: * How much money will I need to retire? * How long will it take for me to accumulate it? * What types of post-retirement activities are available to technical professionals? Engineering Your Retirement discusses financial independence from the unique cultural view of the technical professional and features many charts, graphs, analytical tools, and equations to help present the financial nuts-and-bolts of retiring in a logical and analytical manner. It offers practical, firsthand advice from an industry expert on: * Effectively budgeting for investments * Planning for health insurance * Choosing a retirement community * Building up a cash/bond ladder * Considering inflation * Portfolio requirements * Investment allocations * Paying off a mortgage * And much more!
When 13-year-old Sarah falls in the mud behind her new home in Phoenix, she finds an unusual piece of ancient pottery. Then, after accidentally dying herself red and green, Sarah almost collides with 14-year-old Pilo. The two of them begin looking for traces of the past in the mountains and desert surrounding their homes. During their explorations, they uncover a developer's plot to bulldoze one of the prehistoric sites.With the help of an upset rattlesnake, a neighbor with two peculiar dogs, and a mysterious packet, Sarah and Pilo set out to stop what everyone thinks is unstoppable.
