Gain the Skill to Design Modern Wireless Circuits and Systems!
This fully updated and revised edition of the bestselling Complete Wireless Design takes a uniquely practical approach to designing complex receivers and transmitters found in advanced analog and digital wireless communication systems, right down to the circuit level.
This authoritative book uses real-life examples to provide a solid foundation in the subject, and simple algebra to guide you through specific analysis and design processes. In addition, you’ll find all the information you’ll need for performing full circuit and electromagnetic software simulations to ensure the optimum performance of all completed projects. Plus, this in-depth step-by-step guide comes with a CD-ROM containing new simulation and design software. Engineers and technicians will not find a more thorough, practical book than Complete Wireless Design.
Updates include:
Fully worked out design samples, complete with RF simulation results
Special sections on power amplifier design and printed circuit board layout
Brand-new chapters covering antenna design and RF test and measurement
Tips and techniques on performing accurate RF circuit simulations
How to design for EMI control to pass FCC product testing
The latest software for use in wireless design
This COMPLETELY updated edition teaches you how to design:
Amplifiers
Oscillators
Frequency synthesizers
Filters
Mixers
Antennas
Support circuits
Communication systems
Summary: Good Book on Wireless Design
Rating: 4
I recently bought this book to revise my RF theory and design RF circuits for my projects and i’m happy that i bought this book. This book is well written and each component of wireless communication system is explained clearly with least amount of maths. The CD with software applications also helps you to design your wireless application. Overall good text.
Summary: Recommended

At last, a good RF book. Sure, it’s not perfect, but it puts the others I’ve read to shame.
Yes, a book that doesn’t consider 30MHz “really high”. That’s progressed beyond vacuum tubes. Hell, it even discusses them newfangled ICs. In fact, digital radio is probably given more coverage than analog! This is modern pro quality, not stuck in 1970s tinkerer’s-land.
The most shocking thing is the complete omission of Smith charts. Though after reading this, learning to use these charts should be a lot easier.
Also, it’s quite hilarious (or sad) when the author starts to discuss the enclosed Puff program, and the tone of the work jumps back about 20 years (”the program will work with CGA and EGA, but **VGA** is recommended because the text can be smaller”, etc)!!!
A fair bit about layout and PCBs is discussed, though I would have liked even more detail. Also, some sort of summaries or decision trees would be useful for the more complex design areas like matching networks.
Summary: What I expected
Rating: 5
When I order from Amazon I expect prompt and accurate shipments.
This met those expectations.
Summary: you will be happy to have this book
Rating: 5
It is a great invaluable book, it is an anatomy of the wireless building blocks and should be in the library of all engineers interested in the RF field but if you are a beginner or advanced engineer this book may not fulfill your interests, this book covers a lot of topics in between these two levels. even if you are a beginner buy it for future refrence.
Summary: Great overview of wireless design
Rating: 5
Complete wireless design was a very useful book in developing an understanding of wireless systems, filters, matching circuits, microstrips etc…
For those who have a sound knowledge in Electronic engineering and wish to develop their knowledge in RF design, this is a great book to start with. If you have already studied RF or have a modest knowledge within this field then this probably isn’t the book for you (could be used as a reference).
