This comprehensive test on Network Analysis and Synthesis is designed for undergraduate students of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering, Electronics and Computer Engineering and Biomedical Engineering. The book will also be useful to AMIE and IETE students.

Written with student-centered, pedagogically driven approach, the text provides a self-centered introduction to the theory of network analysis and synthesis. Striking a balance between theory and practice, it covers topics ranging from circuit elements and Kirchhoff’s laws, network theorems, loop and node analysis of dc and ac circuits, resonance, transients, coupled circuits, three-phase circuits, graph theory, Fourier and Laplace analysis, Filters, attenuators and equalizers to network synthesis. All the solved and unsolved problems in this book are designed to illustrate the topics in a clear way. (jacket)
