Featured Book: Microstrip Lines and Slotlines

Microstrip Lines and Slotlines, by Ramesh Garg, Inder Bahl, and Maurizio Bozzi. Planar transmission line technology has progressed considerably due to developments in UWB communications, imaging, and RFID applications. In addition, the simultaneous demands for compactness of wireless electronic devices while meeting improved performance requirements, necessitates increased use of computer-aided design, simulation, and analysis by microwave engineers. This book is written to help engineers successfully meet these challenges. This book was used as the basis for RF Cafe Quiz #50.
