Synopsis

High-frequency design becomes unforgiving when traces behave like transmission lines, impedance mismatches create reflections, and a circuit that looks perfect in simulation fails on the bench. This practical guide helps you build the physical intuition and analytical discipline needed to solve those problems with confidence.

Designed for senior electrical students, graduate learners, and practicing hardware professionals, the book moves from distributed behavior and standing waves into impedance transformation, waveguides, resonators, filtering, couplers, device selection, amplification, oscillation, frequency conversion, antennas, measurement, radar, satellite links, 5G/6G, and sensing.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

• Read Smith charts and interpret reflection, VSWR, gain, and stability
• Select matching approaches based on bandwidth, loss, Q, and tolerance
• Analyze wave propagation, resonant structures, filters, dividers, and couplers
• Work with GaAs, GaN, SiGe, diodes, LNAs, power stages, sources, and mixers
• Use S-parameters, calibration, and vector network analyzer workflows
• Connect component behavior to radar, satellite, communication, and sensing hardware
• Apply worked examples using realistic device data and practical constraints
• Recognize bench pitfalls through “Lessons Learned” guidance

Avoid costly mismatch, calibration, layout, and component-selection errors. Build the judgment to move from equations to verified hardware and turn complex high-frequency problems into structured, testable decisions.
