This groundbreaking book is the first to give an introduction to microwave de-embedding, showing how it is the cornerstone for waveform engineering. The authors of each chapter clearly explain the theoretical concepts, providing a foundation that supports linear and non-linear measurements, modelling and circuit design. Recent developments and future trends in the field are covered throughout, including successful strategies for low-noise and power amplifier design. This book is a must-have for those wishing to understand the full potential of the microwave de-embedding concept to achieve successful results in the areas of measurements, modelling, and design at high frequencies.

With this book you will learn:

The theoretical background of high-frequency de-embedding for measurements, modelling, and design

Details on applying the de-embedding concept to the transistor s linear, non-linear, and noise behaviour

The impact of de-embedding on low-noise and power amplifier design

The recent advances and future trends in the field of high-frequency de-embedding

Presents the theory and practice of microwave de-embedding, from the basic principles to recent advances and future trendsWritten by experts in the field, all of whom are leading researchers in the areaEach chapter describes theoretical background and gives experimental results and practical applications
Includes forewords by Giovanni Ghione and Stephen Maas"

To design and develop fast and effective microwave wireless systems today involves addressing the three different 'levels': Device, circuit, and system. This book presents the links and interactions between the three different levels rather than providing just a comprehensive coverage of one specific level. With the aim of overcoming the sectional knowledge of microwave engineers, this will be the first book focused on explaining how the three different levels interact by taking the reader on a journey through the different levels going from the theoretical background to the practical applications.
