"High-frequency integrated circuit design is a booming area of growth that is driven not only by the expanding capabilities of underlying circuit technologies like CMOS, but also by the dramatic increase in wireless communications products that depend on them. INTEGRATED CIRCUITS FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS includes seminal and classic papers in the field and is the first all-in-one resource to address this increasingly important topic.Internationally known and highly regarded in the field, editors Asad Abidi, Paul Gray, and Robert Meyer have meticulously compiled more than 100 papers and articles covering the very latest high-level integrated circuits techniques and solutions in use today. INTEGRATED CIRCUITS FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS is devised expressly to provide IC design engineers, system architects, and integrators with a practical understanding of subjects ranging from architecture choices for integrated transceivers to actual circuit designs in all viable IC technologies such as bipolar, CMOS, and GaAs. The papers selected represent a breadth of coverage and level of expertise that is unmatched in the field."
