An introduction to radio communications applications of analog systems. This text/reference emphasizes those aspects of communication system design that allow technical specifications to be established for the radio circuitry, employing trigonometric methods from the outset. Introduces a system classification of fixed vs. time-varying, instantaneous vs. dynamic and linear vs. non-linear. General design of the analog receiving system is given priority.
