Basic theory and techniques are concentrated mostly in the first four chapters, where definitions, formulas and references are collected aiming at giving a thorough overview of the most relevant topics: circuit theory, material properties, transmission lines, signal analysis and spectral analysis, including random processes, probability and statistics. The central chapters 5, 6 and 7 deals with three important elements of setups and experiments: cables, printed circuit boards and connectors. The influence on the overall measurement, their modeling and characterization are discussed, keeping an eye on applicable standards. The last four chapters cover advanced aspects of scattering parameters, differential lines and mixed modes, and the use and performance of spectrum analyzer and vector network analyzer.
