Short-range RF communication is undergoing a revolution in capabilities and applications. This practical guide provides a basic but comprehensive understanding of short-range RF theory and design principles for engineers, technicians, and those who want to understand more about this growing area of technology.

Each of the major subjects of the book is treated by a basic theoretical discussion and development, accompanied by design examples and diagrams. The book also includes a chapter on rules and regulations governing unlicensed short-range radio equipment for the U.S., Canada, and Europe. The accompanying CD ROM contains Mathcad-based engineering worksheets pertaining to the design of short-range radio communication systems, and a full, searchable electronic version of the text.
