Electrical Spectrum and Network Analyzers: A Practical Approach

by Albert D. Helfrick

Overview

This book presents fundamentals and the latest techniques of electrical spectrum analysis. It focuses on instruments and techniques used on spectrum and network analysis, rather than theory. The book covers the use of spectrum analyzers, tracking generators, and network analyzers. Filled with practical examples, the book presents techniques that are widely used in signal processing and communications applications, yet are difficult to find in most literature.

Editorial Reviews

A guide for engineers and technicians to using spectrum analyzers, filling the gap between works on the theory of spectrum analysis and simple instruction manuals. Focusing on the measurement of radio frequencies, presents a view of practical circuits and operational techniques, ranging into theory and descriptions of the instrument's workings only so far as they could be useful in solving specific problems.
