This title reviews approaches to and topologies of Ku-band transmitters. The advantages and disadvantages of these transmitters are explored along with critical design criteria necessary to enhance system performance. The design and implementation of a functional compact LTCC-based transmitter module featuring an integrated filter and MMIC chipsets are explained. Through this book, the reader will learn to analyze, design and characterize these transceiver modules. The strength of the book lies in its focus on component-based design for wireless system applications. This aspect represents realistic views of contemporary wireless design.
