Abstract:This paper presents a 60 GHz low-noise amplifier (LNA) to improve detection systems performance. The considered system is based on impulse radar technology. The LNA is designed in GaAs metamorphic High Electron Mobility Transistor (m-HEMT) technology. Three stages common source transistors are used with inductive degeneration for a good tradeoff between gain and noise. The post-layout simulation results show a noise factor of 2.06 dB and a gain of 14.5 dB at 60.2 GHz, for a power consumption of 13.5 mW. The si… Show more
