RF Communications offers the technician a career in a field with a rapidly expanding job market. The rising use of cellular phones has regenerated interest in an area of technology that has not evolved greatly since the early days of AM Radio. Today, fiber optics, signal processing, and microwave go hand-in hand in support of RF Communication.

We offer a modular RF Communications program that covers Amplitude Modulation, Frequency Modulation, Citizen Band, Single Sideband, and Narrowband FM radio. This program uses the Nida Series 130 Platform to power the individual circuits and provide real world fault insertion. The courseware is provided in hardcopy and computer assisted formats.
