Learning Path — RF Hardware

Guidance only. For the hardware side of RF: what a signal is, the physical devices that capture and move it, and how RF links are engineered.

This is a guide, not a requirement. A Learning Path only recommends an order for working through otherwise-independent modules toward competence in this area. Take them all, or pick just the ones you need — your progress is tracked per module either way.

The hardware side of RF is about the physical chain that puts a signal in front of your software: what a signal is, the devices that capture and move it, and how RF ultimately carries data. Work the modules below in order, or dip into the ones you need.
