Designing RF Combining Systems for Shared Radio Sites 1st Edition

Designing RF Combining Systems for Shared Radio Sites — 1st Edition by Ian Graham draws you in with a clear promise: practical, real-world guidance for the complex challenges of multi-operator sites and modern wireless networks. Ideal for RF engineers, site planners and network operators, this authoritative guide brings clarity to the art and science of combining systems.

Inside, Graham breaks down the principles and practices behind effective RF combining: from combiner topologies and loss/isolation trade-offs to antenna sharing, passive component selection, and mitigation of co-site interference. Detailed explanations and design strategies help you weigh cost, space and performance—critical when planning sites in dense urban centers across the UK, Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific.

Readers will appreciate how theory translates into practice: step-by-step approaches to layout, filtering, power handling and maintenance ensure reliable deployments that meet regulatory and operator requirements. The book also covers optimization techniques to maximize capacity while minimizing CAPEX and OPEX—making it a practical resource for both greenfield builds and site upgrades.

Whether you’re a seasoned RF designer or a telecom professional expanding into site sharing, this book equips you with actionable insights to reduce risk, speed deployments and deliver measurable improvements in coverage and spectral efficiency.

Concise, technically rigorous and written with real-world priorities in mind, Designing RF Combining Systems for Shared Radio Sites is the go-to reference for anyone designing or managing shared radio infrastructure.
