AN attempt has been made in this book to bring together the
fundamentals of radio receiver design. Difficulties were experienced
in determining the order of treatment, and it was finally decided to
follow introductory chapters on general considerations and valves
by a detailed examination of the receiver, stage by stage, starting
from the aerial. There are objections to this method from the
teaching point of view ; for example, the chapter on aerials is better
considered after that on R.F. amplifiers, whilst the chapter on
LF, amplifiers should be read before the latter half of that on R.F.
amplifiers. To meet possible criticism a fairly detailed table of
contents is given, so that the reader can develop his own plan of
campaign.
Owing to war conditions the book has had to be divided into two
parts, the first ending at the detector stage, leaving Part II to deal
with audio frequency amplifiers, power supplies, receiver measure-
ments, television and frequency modulated receiver design, etc.
The cosine expression, # cos wt, for a voltage of sinusoidal wave
shape is used in preference to the sine expression because it is
considered that it leads to a simpler mathematical analysis. For
the same reason the grid bias voltage is written as—E,, ie., Ey
represents a numerical and not algebraical value of bias. The
advantage of so doing is most evident in Chapter 8.
Part I is practically self-contained, though there are one or two
cross-references to sections in Part II. To facilitate cross-reference
all sections, figures and expressions are prefixed by the chapter
number.
No claim is made to an exhaustive bibliography, and reference is
made, at an appropriate point in the text, only to those articles
which have proved helpful in its preparation.
The author is indebted to his wife for help in reading the proofs,
to Mr. R. M. Mitchell, B.Sc., for checking many of the calculations,
to Mr. R. P. Shipway, B.A., for helpful discussion on parts of
Chapter 8, and to Marconi’s Wireless Telegraph Company for per-
mission to publish material originally used by the author in lectures
at the Marconi School of Wireless Communication.
