Analysis of modern analog and digital communication channels from a manager's perspective

This thesis presents the fundamental communication transmission principles which define the performance characteristics cf the transmission channel. The subject matter is divided into three categories (1) antennas, (2) transmission lines, and (3) waveguides. The scope of presentation is results oriented rather than the traditional theorem and proof approach. While tie results are quantitative in nature, consideration of the underlying principles as well as the advantages and disadvantages associated with each transmission channel are presented. Although technical factors are often the tasis upon which decisions regarding communication systeis are made, it is evident that the telecommunication systems manager must understand the fundamental principles cf the transmission channel in order to effect viable solutions to telecommunications management problems.
