Two methods to improve the noise characteristics were used to design LNAs. The first approach for improving noise characteristics of the LNA is using the device-size selection to optimize the noise performance. By incorporating the series resistances of the on-chip inductors into the noise optimization procedure, the optimum device size can be selected more appropriately. The 10 GHz LNA has a measured gain 11.25 dB with the noise figure below 3 dB. The second approach for improving noise characteristics of the LNA is using the parallel-resonant technique between the two stages of the cascode LNA, the LNA achieved measured noise figure of 2.5 dB, which is about 0.5 dB noise figure improvement over the first circuit.CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1 1.1 Motivation 1 1.2 Literature Survey 2 1.3 Contributions 3 1.4 Chapter Outlines 4 CHAPTER 2 INTRODUCTION OF LOW NOISE AMPLIFIERS 5 2.1 Operation of Low Noise Amplifiers 5 2.2 Methods to Improve the Noise Characteristics of Low Noise Amplifiers 20 CHAPTER 3 LOW NOISE AMPLIFIERS USING AN IMPROVED NOISE-OPTIMIZATION METHOD 28 3.1 The Conventional Noise-Optimization Method 30 3.2 The Improved Noise-Optimization Method 33 3.3 LNA Design 35 3.4 LNA Measurements 40 3.5 Summary 44 CHAPTER 4 LOW NOISE AMPLIFIERS USING PARALLEL-RESONANT TECHNIQUE 45 4.1 Motivation 46 4.2 Design Principle 49 4.3 LNA Design and Measurements 57 4.4 Summary 64 CHAPTER 5 CONCLUSIONS 65 REFERENCES 681450730 bytesapplication/pdfen-US低雜訊放大器金氧半場效電晶體改善雜訊微波LNAlow noise amplifierCMOSnoise improvementmicrowave微波金氧半場效電晶體低雜訊放大器改善雜訊的新方法New Methods to Improve Noise Figure of Microwave CMOS LNAsthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/58934/1/ntu-94-P92942002-1.pdf
