Abstract: | Different high-linearity low noise amplifier (LNA) structures have been designed, simulated and compared, providing good performance results concerning noise figure, bandwidth, power gain, intermodulation and gain compression, when a low-level voltage supply is used. The structures were designed to be used in personal communication systems (PCSs), operating at 1900 MHz using a SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) and 2.4 V bias polarisation |
