Never before has such a comprehensive treatment of microwave transmission line filters been published. This text features the most up-to-date information on microwave filters, including recent advances in computer assisted exact filter design methods. Filter principles are introduced as first principles so that the reader would only need to have knowledge of basic transmission line theory. Throughout the book a universal network model is used. Relevant port conditions are applied to the model to yield equivlent circuits for the networks. Over 170 figures and tables explicate the text. With references and index.
