<br/><br/>Includes bibliographical references. 
<br/><br/>Introduction to radio communication systems -- Small-signal amplifiers -- Network noise and intermodulation distortion -- Frequency-selective networks and transformers -- High-frequency amplifiers and automatic gain control -- Hybrid and transmission-line transformers -- Oscillators -- Phase-locked loops -- Phase-locked loop analysis -- Frequency synthesizers -- Power amplifiers -- Modulators and demodulators. 
<br/><br/> "This text introduces many of the fundamental circuit concepts used in modern receivers and transmitters. By foregoing detailed mathematical treatment, it emphasizes convenient and effective approximations for the analysis and design of communication circuits. Computerized circuit simulation methods are used throughout to facilitate detailed circuit analysis."
