Analysis and Design of Integrated Circuit-Antenna Modules

With communications technologies rapidly expanding, the traditional separation of electronic circuits and antenna systems design is no longer feasible. This book covers various design approaches applicable to integrated circuit-antenna modules with the goal of placing the antenna, transmitter, and receiver all on a single chip. It emphasizes analysis and design involving the integration of circuit functions with radiating elements and addresses trends in systems miniaturization.In diesem Buch wird besprochen, wie sich Schaltkreisfunktionen und strahlende Elemente zu einem einzigen Modul verknüpfen lassen. Diese Integration ist ein Schritt auf dem Weg zur Miniaturisierung elektronischer Systeme, an dessen Ende ein Transceiver mit Antenne, Sender und Empfänger auf einem Chip steht. Ein einführendes Kapitel enthält Angaben zu Grundlagen und Terminologie; anschließend werden Analyse und Design der Bauelemente umfassend abgehandelt. (11/99) Review of CAD Process (K. Gupta & P.
