The solutions to problems in the text Broadband Matching: Theory and Implementations are presented in this book. It contains detailed solutions to most problems in the text except some proofs of identities and theorems and the verification of solutions. Many of the design problems are given in numerical details for the benefit of those who wish to perform the design themselves.
Contents:
