Experimental Methods in Rf Design

Immerse yourself in the communications experience by building equipment that contributes to understanding basic concepts and circuits.

Explore wide dynamic range, low distortion radio equipment, the use of direct conversion and phasing methods, and digital signal processing. Use the models and discussion to design, build and measure equipment at both the circuit and the system level. Laced with new unpublished projects and illustrated with CW and SSB gear.
