Neural Networks for RF and Microwave Design (Book + Neuromodeler Disk)

by Q. J. Zhang, K. C. Gupta (Joint Author)

Overview

Discover the new, unconventional alternatives for conquering RF and microwave design and modeling problems using neural networks — information processing systems that can learn, generalize, and even allow model development when component formulas are missing — with this book and software package. It shows you the ease of creating models with neural networks, and how quick model evaluation can be done, plus other opportunities presented by neural networks for conquering the toughest RF and microwave CAD problems.

Editorial Reviews

Describing neural networks as information processing system inspired by the ability of the human brain to learn from observations and to generalize by abstraction, Zhang (electronics, Carlton U., Ottawa) and Gupta (manufacturing and packaging electronics, U. of Colorado) describe the approach for radio-frequency and microwave engineers, researchers, and graduate students. They discuss modeling and optimizing for design, network structures, training networks, models for radio-frequency and microwave components, modeling high-speed integrated circuit interconnects, modeling active components, design analysis and optimization, and knowledge-based models. The contents of the disk remain a surprise. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
