looking for learning material

[tlh0598]

Could someone steer me to a good book on RF. I am looking for something that discusses Intermodulation and other interference, noise figure, as well as equipment like isolators, duplexers, multicouplers etc. I would like something pretty detailed as long as the math isnt too much beyond Calc III.

If you want to keep the math to a minimum, then check out the 'amateur radio' RF books from ARRL and/or RSGB.

Thanks for the recommendation! Actually I dont mind the math at all.

I will look through the book offerings on those sites.

Any other suggestions of textbook type material would be appreciated.

Checkout "The Complete RF Designer's Handbook".

Two practical books are: "The Radioman's Manual of RF Devices" by Harold Kinley and "Secrets of RF Circuit Design" by Joseph J. Carr.

Thanks to you all. I went ahead and ordered Microwave and Rf Design of Wireless Systems by David M. Pozar. The TOC looks like it covers just about everything I am looking for.
