Books in the Studies in Electrical and Electronic Engineering series

Focuses on the electronic devices that make use of surface acoustic waves in solids as well as on the principles underlying them. This book presents an introductory survey which is followed by chapters on acoustic wave fundamentals, electric excitation, transducers, multi-strip couplers and propagation effects.

For students of electrical, electronics and mechanics departments, this book introduces the reader to the design philosophy behind vector control systems. It includes the mathematical motor models based on complex-space vector descriptions as well as the control structures for DC motors.

Provides designers with an in-depth overview on the interdisciplinary methods involved in the design of switching mode power supplies. This book adopts a systemic approach, subdividing the information into functional blocks whose properties and relationships are evaluated and compared with each other.
