Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The authors start out with good intentions however they do not see them through to completion. For instance, the section in chapter 5 on hairpin filters refers you to parameter extraction techniques in chapter 8. Reading through chapter 8, nothing explicity refers you back to chapter 5. You are left on your own to figure out what in chapter 8 applies to chapter 5. Likewise with the section in chapter 5 regarding parallel coupled line filters. They refer you back to chapter 4, but chapter 4 does not explicity refer you back to chapter 5. The examples are incomplete at best and criminal at worst. The examples start out with adequate detail but then the usual academia smoke and mirrors trick is performed and voila you have the solution. Again the sections on hairpin and parallel coupled line filters (p130 and p128) show this.
In summary this book is not worth your time or money.
