Reviews & endorsements
"This book could be used as part of graduate studies on software radios and trends in radio design. This book is also a very nice tutorial on how the practicalities of radio design intersect with a future trend in radio design. It is rare to find the balance of practical depth and high-level vision that comes together in this book."
Alfy Riddle, IEEE Microwave Magazine
"The work is well written and illustrated with a minimum of mathematics. It is aimed at the practicing electrical or computer engineer or student interested in being introduced to this new technology...Recommended." - CHOICE
