In the arena of parasitic-aware design of CMOS RF circuits, efforts are aimed at the realization of true single-chip radios with few, if any, off-chip components. The parasitic-aware RF circuit synthesis techniques described in this book effectively address critical problems in this field.

High Data Rate Transmitter Circuits is a practical guide and introduction to the design of key RF building blocks used in high data rate transmitters. The emphasis lies on CMOS circuit techniques applicable to oscillators and upconvertors. Furthermore, a method for RF-specific design automation is exemplified by the CYCLONE tool for automated LC-VCO synthesis.

The accuracy of a simulation depends strongly on the models used for the passive and active components. Therefore, a chapter on practical RF simulation models for MOST devices and planar inductors is...

Until recently, much of the communications technology in the former Eastern bloc countries was largely unknown. Due to the historically competitive nature of East/West relations, scientific groups operated independently, without the benefit of open communication on theoretical frameworks and experimental technologies. As these countries have begun to bridge the gap and work in a more cooperative environment, the need has grown for a comprehensive guide which assimilates all the information in this vast knowledge bank....

As mass communication is a major topic of interest in American colleges, there is also a growing interest in comparative mass media in other countries. This book is designed to put current practices in the United States in comparative perspective and thus shed new light on American media practices. It is designed as a resource for the growing number of courses dealing with international media, and a recommended supplement for basic mass communications courses that provide a global perspective.

Part One, Basic Concepts, gives you a concise introduction to the main topics and techniques involved in mobile radio systems. You can brush up on classic areas such as propagation and signal processing, and get up to speed on more recent techniques and concepts such as security, planning, and mobility management. In Part Two, The Systems, you take...
