RF Engineer Network is the long-running project of Simon White, an old hat radio engineer. The aim is simple: to help educate a new generation of RF engineers.
The Story Behind RF Engineer Network
This site has had its ups and downs over the years. It started as one engineer’s project, went quiet for stretches, and never quite went away, because the reason for it never did. RF design is hard to learn from scattered sources, and good explanations of how real radios work are worth keeping in one place.
So the site has been brought back to life. It has been rebuilt around one complete path through RF design, from the first units and formulas to finished radio systems.
What You’ll Find on This RF Engineering Site
- RF Design: The Complete Guide maps the whole subject and is the best place to start.
- Radio Architectures is a 20-part series covering how receivers and transmitters are put together.
- RF calculators are free tools for everyday work, including decibel conversion, VSWR, noise figure, microstrip and link budgets.
- How to learn RF design sets out a roadmap if you’re new to the subject.
Who the Site Is For
The site is written for students, new RF engineers, and engineers from other fields who need to get up to speed on radio design. All of it is free to read.
