Bob does a great job of describing the theory behind spectrum and network measurements and then relating that theory to real-world measurements. I would recommend this book to all electronics engineers who must make frequency-domain measurements of any kind.

- Dan Romanchik, Test and Measurement World Magazine

Spectrum and network measurements are basic tools for wireless and telecommunication engineering test and troubleshooting. Witte covers the essential theory and practical techniques behind these measurements in a clear and straightforward way. This book, with its tutorial approach, belongs on any designer's bookshelf.

-Ken Wyatt, Agilent Technologies

Bob Witte is a gifted...designer whose writing helps engineers span the void of understanding. I never thought I'd mention the words 'easy' and 'Fourier' in the same sentence, but Bob's book is an easy read that takes the mystery out of frequency domain, Fourier transforms, aliasing and more. As you read this book, it becomes obvious that Bob has done as much teaching as he has designing.
