The second edition of this handbook provides a state-of-the-art cover view on the various aspects in the rapidly developing field of robotics. Reaching for the human frontier, robotics is vigorously engaged in the growing challenges of new emerging domains. Interacting, exploring, and working with humans, the new generation of robots will increasingly touch people and their lives. The credible prospect of practical robots among humans is the result of the scientific endeavour of a half a century of robotic developments that established robotics as a modern scientific discipline.

This unique and comprehensive resource offers you a detailed treatment of the operations principles, key parameters, and specific characteristics of active and passive RF, microwave, and millimeter-wave components. The book covers both linear and nonlinear components that are used in a wide range of application areas, from communications and information sciences, to avionics, space, and military engineering.

Here is a comprehensive, practical guide to the entire process of analog instrumentation and control, from sensor input to data conversion circuitry and final output. This readable handbook avoids complex mathematical treatments, instead taking an applications-oriented approach and presenting many sample circuits and concrete examples.

It is an essential reference for engineers and high-level technicians in a variety of scientific and engineering fields--anywhere data is collected electronically and where such data is used to control physical processes.

This book presents a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the theory (physical principles), design, and practical implementations of various sensors for scientific, industrial and consumer applications. This latest edition focuses on the sensing technologies driven by the expanding use of sensors in mobile devices.

These new miniature sensors will be described, with an emphasis on smart sensors which have embedded processing systems. The chapter on chemical sensors has also been expanded to present the latest developments.

4 года назад Bryce Anderson, K7UA, написал ряд коротких статей для своего местного DX-клуба, которые затем были сбораны вместе под названием "New DXer's Handbook - Новый учебник DX-мена". Это 2-е издание, отредактированное и дополненное, охватывает различные аспекты DX-инга.  Перевод: Виктор Гончарский US5WE/K1WE.

Fully updated for the latest electrical codes and standards.
For a century, the American Electricians' Handbook has served as the definitive industry reference for information on designing, installing, operating, and maintaining electrical systems and equipment. The Sixteenth Edition is revised to comply with the 2011 National Electrical Code and the 2012 National Electrical Safety Code, and covers current energy-efficient technologies, such as photovoltaics and induction lighting.

The Standard Handbook of Electronics Engineering has defined its field for over thirty years. Spun off in the 1960’s from Fink’s Standard Handbook of Electrical Engineering, the Christiansen book has seen its markets grow rapidly, as electronic engineering and microelectronics became the growth engine of digital computing.

 Many books claim to have been extensively revised however the RSGB Radio Communication Handbook, 8th edition has had the largest revision for many an edition. Once again, the RSGB has recruited experts on a wide variety of subjects to produce the most comprehensive guide to the practical side of amateur radio. Covering the entire spectrum from the basics through to advanced projects, and including many classic circuits, the Radio Communication Handbook makes an essential shack accessory.

Рассмотрены все аспекты проведения радиосвязей через любительские искусственные спутники Земли.

The most comprehensive book ever written about amateur satellites! From setting up a station and choosing the right antenna for the right satellite, to tracking the birds.
 Regardless of your level of experience with the ham satellites, you'll find what you're looking for in this book:
 Operating
 Antennas
 Software
 Profiles of all the active satellites
 Internet Sites
 FCC Rules governing the Amateur Satellite Service
 A comprehensive glossary
 And more!

Written by a stellar international panel of expert contributors, this handbook remains the most up-to-date, reliable, and comprehensive source for real answers to practical problems. In addition to updated information in most chapters, this edition features several heavily revised and completely rewritten chapters, new chapters on such topics as CMOS fabrication and high-speed circuit design, heavily revised sections on testing of digital systems and design languages, and two entirely new sections on low-power electronics and VLSI signal processing. An updated compendium of references and other resources-such as software, databases, standards, and seminars-points toward more in-depth information.
