A practical guide to the principles of radio communications forboth civilian and military applications
In this book, the author covers both the civilian and militaryuses of technology, focusing particularly on the applications ofradio propagation and prediction. Divided into two parts, theauthor introduces the basic theory of radio prediction beforeproviding a step-by-step explanation of how this theory can betranslated into real-life applications. In addition, the bookpresents up-to-date systems and methods to illustrate how theseapplications work in practice. This includes systems working in theHF bands and SHF. Furthermore, the author examines the performanceof these systems, and also the effects of noise, interference anddeliberate jamming, as well as the performance of jamming,detection and intercept systems. Particular attention is paid tothe problems caused by Radio Controlled Improvised ExplosiveDevices (RCIEDs).
Key Features:
* A practical handbook on the topic of radio communications andpropagation
* Written by an expert in both the civilian and militaryapplications of the technology
* Focuses on methods such as radio and radar jamming, andradio-controlled improvised explosive devices (IEDs)
* Contains problems and solutions to clarify key topics

Über Autor(innen)

Lt Cdr Adrian Graham (Retd) has worked on military and intelligence projects both as a civilian engineer and as a naval technical intelligence specialist. Whilst a director of ATDI Ltd, he worked closely with clients in Special Forces, specialist EW regiments and other government agencies in the EW and intelligence environment. Through this he has provided guidance on Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and has designed and delivered many training courses on military communications and electronic warfare. In addition, Adrian is highly experienced at designing radio networks for both military and civil applications, and an expert in the use of computer-based radio prediction and modelling techniques in order to predict their performance in the real world. Having served for 22 years as an intelligence officer in the Defence Intelligence Staff, he is a technical expert on DI 57, Technical Intelligence (Navy).
