Abstract

Low noise amplifiers (LNAs) play a key role in radio receiver performance. A LNA is an electronic amplifier that amplifies a very low power signal without significantly degrading its signal-to-noise ratio. An amplifier will increase the power of both signal and the noise present at is input. Low noise amplifiers are designed to minimize the additional noise. Designers minimize the additional noise by considering tradeoffs that include impedance matching, choosing the amplifier technology and selecting biasing conditions. Performance of different design are compared with respective noise figure, gain, input and output reflection coefficient. Advanced design system (ADS) tool was used for design and simulation of LNA.
