Abstract:This article proposes an original method for designing Low Noise Amplifiers on wide-bandgap RF technologies. These LNAs are able to withstand high electromagnetic signals, like those used in electronic warfare, while providing high detectivity. The study presents the original design procedure of a single-stage LNA and a two-stage LNA based on the same strategy. These self-reconfigurable LNAs make it possible to switch from a high detectivity mode (low NF) to a high linearity mode (high input compression mode I… Show more
