Product Description
Book Description
Focusing on the design of microwave circuits and components, this valuable reference offers professionals and students an introduction to the fundamental concepts necessary for real world design. The author successfully introduces Maxwell's equations, wave propagation, network analysis, and design principles as applied to modern microwave engineering. A considerable amount of material in this book is related to the design of specific microwave circuits and components, for both practical and motivational value. It also presents the analysis and logic behind these designs so that the reader can see and understand the process of applying the fundamental concepts to arrive at useful results. The derivations are well laid out and the majority of each chapter's formulas are displayed in a nice tabular format every few pages. This Third Edition offers greatly expanded coverage with new material on: Noise; Nonlinear effects; RF MEMs; transistor power amplifiers; FET mixers; oscillator phase noise; transistor oscillators and frequency multiplier.
From the Back Cover
Comprehensive, up-to-date, and applied coverage of modern microwave engineering
Complete with practical applications and clear design procedures, Pozar’s Third Edition of MICROWAVE ENGINEERING offers a comprehensive, up-to-date presentation of the field. Based on fundamental principles of electrical engineering, the text shows that microwave circuits and devices can be explained through the use of circuit theory, Maxwell’s equations, and related concepts.
Now updated and revised, this Third Edition features new material on active circuit design, nonlinear effects, and noise.
Highlight include:
- New and revised coverage: The third Edition presents new materials on capacitively coupled resonator filters, RF MEMS, transistor power amplifiers, transistor oscillators, frequency multipliers, oscillator phase noise, and FET mixers, as well as substantially revised coverage of a number of topics.
- Many examples covering both theory and design: Examples, including many that are new or revised for this edition, show how typical problems are solved, how typical designs are carried out, and how typical component designs perform.
- A wide variety of problems: Problems, including many that are new or revised, also cover both theory and design. Answers to selected problems provide opportunities for self-assessment.
- Discussion of both the how and the why of microwave engineering: The text begins with fundamental concepts, then builds on these to show how microwave components and circuits operate, and how they are designed.
- Extra resource on the Web: The web site for this text includes a Laboratory Manual of experiments from the University of Massachusetts and related files for using Ansoft’s Serenade Microwave CAD package for several of the examples and problems in the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Not a surprise it's constantly checked out and waitlisted,
This review is from: Microwave Engineering, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
I've had to search numerous large University libraries for a copy of this book, and all copies seem to be perpetually checked out (some for months at a time). It isn't much of a surprise considering this is an excellent primer for microwave engineering and RF circuit design. The derivations are well laid out and the majority of each chapter's formulas are displayed in a nice tabular format every few pages.It's a must have for any elec student (or physicist) that's interested in microwave engineering, RF circuit design and electromagnetic waves.

A BASIC REFERENCE IN MW ENGINEERING,
By Francisco Falcone (Spain) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Microwave Engineering, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
A BASIC TEXT FOR STUDENTS AND PROFESSIONALS ALIKE. IT GIVES INSIGHT INTO A WIDE VARIETY OF ASPECTS OF MW ENGINEERING. THE CHAPTERS ON FILTER ANALYSIS AND SYNTHESIS ARE WELL EXPAINED AND USEFUL FOR FIRST APROXIMATION DESIGNS. MODAL ANALYSIS TREATS BASIC ASPECTS OF UNIFORM WAVEGUIDES. THE CHAPTER ON AMPLIFIERS IS VERY DIDACTICAL AND GIVES INSIGHT IN THE PRACTICAL PROBLEMS INVOLVED IN DESIGNING ACTIVE CIRCUITS IN MW TECHNOLOGY. IN BRIEF, A VERY DIDACTICAL BOOK AND A BASIC REFERENCE (AT LEAST FOR ME!!).

A must have for RF Engineering Students,
By A Customer
This review is from: Microwave Engineering, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
I was first introduced to this book through my professor. After reading this book I had a very good understanding of the material: wave guides, networks, S-parameters, filters, impedence matching, and transmission lines. This book does it all. It is an excellent introductory to intermediate book on Microwave engineering. You can understand the book entirely without getting lost in theory. Pozar does a good job at not confusing the reader, and it provides some real world examples that help the user relate. I myself go to GA Tech, and I recommend any electrical engineering student who is interested in electromagnetics or RF engineering to buy this book. If only because the GA Tech Library only has one copy and it is always checked out.
