Electronic Communications for Technicians

Written by a technician for technicians, this book fills the gap between communications books that are either highly mathematical (suitable for engineers) or technically weak (not enough detail for technicians). Using an algebra-based approach that does NOT sacrifice depth of coverage, it uses plain language and an abundance of examples and case studies to explore real circuits, systems, and their troubleshooting. Communication Systems. Signal Analysis. Amplitude Modulation. AM Transmitters. AM Receivers. Single Sideband Systems. Systems for Frequency Generation. Frequency Modulation: Transmission. FM Receivers. Television. Transmission Lines. Antennas and Wave Propagation. Microwave Communication Systems. Introduction to Data Communications. The Global Positioning System. Fiber Optic and Laser Technology. For technicians interested in electronic communications.
