Features: This book analyzes the difficulties encountered by ordinary low-frequency circuits and components when their operating frequency is raised to the radio frequency band, along with the solutions to these challenges. It also focuses on discussing the transmission characteristics of TEM (Transverse Electromagnetic) waves and the principles and methods of various radio frequency devices made using microstrip lines. In terms of content arrangement, this book aims to enable students and engineering technicians in electronic disciplines who have not systematically studied electromagnetic field theory to understand and master the basic design methods and principles of radio frequency circuits. The book is divided into 10 chapters, with the first 4 chapters introducing the characteristics of radio frequency transmission, the basic principles of transmission lines, and Smith charts, network parameters, and signal flow graphs as tools for radio frequency and microwave analysis. The last 6 chapters cover the principle analysis and design methods of various passive and active radio frequency devices. The book includes numerous examples with practical application value, and substantial space is dedicated to explaining their solutions. The authors have also developed a considerable number of simulation or problem-solving software related to the content and topics of this book, using MATLAB mathematical tool software for readers to use.
