SAMPLE REFERENCES
The following references are listed solely as examples of the many books available that provide detailed technical information on the wireless technologies which may be covered by the IEEE WCET® certification exam. The list is far from exhaustive; many other useful publications exist and should be considered by applicants while studying for the test. Inclusion on this list is not intended as an endorsement of any book, nor does absence from this list imply anything about the content or utility of any reference.
