About the Book

The field of RF troubleshooting and design - once the lone domain of Ham radio enthusiasts - has been riding the boom of wireless communications for the last 10 years and shows every appearance of continuing to do so. This revised and updated guide aims to show the reader how to design, build and test today's radio-frequency (RF) circuits. It contains projects and experiments that make it easy to apply RF principles to real-life applications. The author takes the reader through functional projects and provides lists parts and component sources for each project. Its new features include: seven chapters that cover demodulator circuits, vectors for RF circuits, measuring L-C circuits and filtering circuits against EMI; projects involving directional couplers and hybrid couplers; and coverage of simple radio frequency instruments, as well as UHF and microwave components.

Table of Contents:
Chapter 1: Introduction to RF electronics. Chapter 2: RF components and tuned circuits. Chapter 3: Variable capacitors in RF circuits. Chapter 4: Winding your own coils. Chapter 5: Radio receivers: Theory and projects. Chapter 6: Direct-conversion radio receivers. Chapter 7: RF amplifier and preselector circuits. Chapter 8: Building IF amplifiers. Chapter 9: Interpreting radio receiver specifications. Chapter 10: Building signal-generator and oscillator circuits. Chapter 11: RF directional couplers. Chapter 12: The RF hybrid coupler. Chapter 13: Build simple VLF radio receivers. Chapter 14: What's that mess coming from my receiver? Filtering circuits against EMI. Chapter 15: Measuring inductors and capacitors at RF frequencies. Chapter 16: Building and using the RF noise bridge. Chapter 17: Vectors for RF circuits. Chapter 18: Impedance matching: Methods and circuits. Chapter 19: Using the double-balanced mixer (DBM). Chapter 20: PIN diodes and their uses. Chapter 21: UHF and microwave diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits. Chapter 22: LC RF filter circuits. Chapter 23: Time-domain reflectometry on a budget. Chapter 24: Solving frequency drift problems. Chapter 25: The Smith chart. Chapter 26: Detector and demodulator circuits.
