Summary

The subject is focused on the basic electronic circuits in the radio frequency area. Firstly are expained the basic types of the modulations and their properties, the properties of the real devices at high frequencies, selective filters used in the radio frequency area. After that are explained the circuits of the electronic oscillators, mixers, high frequency amplifiers, frequency multipliers, modulators and demodulators and their possibilities of the using in radio receivers and transmitters.
