This reference provides advice and instruction for the planning and detailed design of microwave radio transmission systems. It should be useful for readers planning SDH/SONET broadband networks, backhaul for mobile radio networks such as GSM, transmission links for TETRA networks, TV and utility networks, and Wireless Local Loop networks. The author provides practical guidelines based on hands-on experience. Complex mathematics is avoided and fundamental concepts are explained in the context of real-world applications to encourage a deeper understanding of microwave radio transmission. In addition, the volume serves as a guide to frequency planning for radio networks and provides intelligence on digital radio equipment characteristics and fading in radio systems.

This newly revised edition of the classic Artech House book, "Microwave Radio Transmission Design", provides a current, comprehensive treatment of the subject with a focus on applying practical knowledge to real-world networks. The second edition includes a wealth of important updates, including discussions on capacity limitations, ethernet over radio, and details on the latest cellular radio standards (2.5G, 3G, and 4G). Professionals also learn about recent changes in spectrum management and find more details on the fundamentals of antennas, especially at VHF/UHF levels. This practical book offers proven advice that helps save engineers time and money when developing new networks, and reduces the risk of encountering problems during design and planning.
