Good sources of information regarding S-parameters

[Basher1]

Hello all, I am wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of any good material that explains s-parameters. So far, I have encountered explanations that just confuse with no effort put into simplifying the concept. Even my lecturer assumes that the entire class are geniuses. I don't mind doing the hard work in teaching my self the concepts, i just require material that has a good explanation with lots of examples. Any suggestions are appreciated.

This is the famous Hewlet-Packard App note that explains S-parameters as clearly and simply as I've ever seen.
