Radio Frequency engineering is one of those fields that humbles even experienced engineers. Once you reach frequencies above a few hundred MHz, the rules change rapidly. Traces stop behaving like wires, impedance becomes a moving target, and your PCB layout quietly decides the fate of your entire design. This article, the first in a multi-part series on “Mastering RF Engineering,” by Mouser Electronics, explores how RF technology is designed, built, and tested, highlighting the principles, compo

Navdeep Tripathi, a PhD Researcher at our Wireless Communication Laboratory, School of Electronics Engineering is exploring the dynamic field of radio frequency for his PhD. With the rise of 5G, 6G, and beyond, this domain has vast applications in defence, space, and daily technology, making it a natural choice for his research. | KIIT - Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology

Modern RF (Radio Frequency) systems rely on precise circuit fabrication and interconnects to deliver reliable high-frequency performance. Used in applications such as wireless communication, radar, and sensing, RF circuits must preserve signal quality and minimize signal loss. RF components are built and connected in different ways depending on system needs. Most RF systems use planar circuit boards, which are linked to other circuits through RF interconnects such as waveguides, coaxial connecto
