RF MEMS:
Theory, Design, and Technology
By Gabriel M. Rebeiz
John Wiley & Sons, Incorporated, $89.95

The book provides an in-depth survey of the current technologies being used to design RF MEMS switches, varactors, and inductors. It is suitable as a tutorial for electrical and computer engineering students, or as an up-to-date reference for practicing circuit designers. The textbook describes state-of-the art techniques for mechanical and electrical modeling, fabrication, reliability, and packaging, and concludes with applications in high-isolation switch circuits, low-loss phase shifters, and tunable antennas, filters, and networks.

Distortion in RF Power Amplifiers
Joel Vuolevi, Timo Rahkonen
Artech House, Incorporated, $89.00

By minimizing memory effects, it is possible to use simple linearizers, such as analog predistortion, and still achieve sufficient performance, according to this book. It includes more than 120 equations and more than 110 illustrations The book is a practical reference for professionals who create amplifiers suitable for linear transmitters. It offers new views of semi-conductor modeling. The book also reviews the most common linearization techniques and the different types of memory effects they cause in RF power amplifiers, then presents three techniques for canceling those memory effects: envelope filtering, impedance optimization, and envelope injection. The authors demonstrate how to calculate distortion of a common emitter amplifier using Volterra analysis, and how to extract the parameters of Volterra models for RF power transistors from measured data.

Design of Linear RF
Outphasing Power Amplifiers
Xuejun Zhang, Lawrence E. Larson, Peter M. Asbeck
Artech House, Incorporated, $89.00

This is the first book devoted to the outphasing power amplifier, covering the most recent research results on practical design and applications. A compilation of all the proposed outphasing approaches, the book is a resource for engineers designing base station and mobile handset amplifiers, engineering managers and program managers supervising power amplifier designs, and R&D personnel in industry. Goals of the book are to enable engineers to design microwave power amplifiers with higher efficiency and improved linearity at a lower cost; understand linearity and performance tradeoffs in microwave power amplifiers; and understand the effect of new modulation techniques on microwave power amplifiers.

High-Speed Signal Propagation
By Howard W. Johnson
Pearson Education, $92.00

Each chapter in this book treats a specialized topic having to do with high-speed signal propagation. The book is a manual keeping skills up-to-date in the growing field of digital design. High-Speed Signal Propagation includes techniques for building digital interconnections that can transmit faster, farther, and more efficiently than ever. The book offers a complete and unified theory of signal propagation for all metallic media, from cables to pcb traces to chips. Johnson has accumulated 30 years of experience in digital design, consulting with engineers, all over the world. He is the featured Signal Integrity columnist for EDN Magazine and Chief Technical Editor of IEEE 802.3 standards for Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet.

Nonlinear Microwave and RF Circuits
By Stephen A. Maas
Artech House, Incorporated, $99.00

This is a new and revised edition of the popular 1988 edition. It offers a comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of nonlinear microwave and RF circuits. The book presents in-depth understanding of the theory of nonlinear circuit analysis with a focus on Volterra-series and harmonic-balance methods. The book presents practical guidance in designing nonlinear circuits and modeling solid-state devices for nonlinear circuit analysis by computer. New topics include microwave heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs), heterojunction FETs (HEMTs), silicon MOSFETs, modern IC design approaches, new methods of harmonic-balance analysis, multitone analysis methods, Fourier methods for multitone problems, and artificial frequency mapping. The second edition has been updated to include discussions on nonlinear analysis of oscillators and design issues relating to RF and wireless technology. Maas is the chief scientist at Applied Wave Research. The Artech House series editor of microwave software, Maas is also the author of The RF and Microwave Circuit Design Cookbook and Microwave Mixers.
