Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA 2-12 GHz Low Noise Amplifier Design for Ultra Wide Band ApplicationsV. Vaithianathan, J. Raja, R. SrinivasanProblem statement: The Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) is a core block of an Ultra Wide Band (UWB) receiver since it amplifies a very weak signal received at the antenna to acceptable levels while introducing less self-generated noise and distortions. The LNA design poses a unique challenge as it requires simultaneous optimization of various performance parameters like power gain, input matching, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 9 Jun 2012 · 7,397 accessesView PDFCite
