Simple model for dynamic range estimate of GaAs amplifiers

Non-Invasive Devices for Early Detection of Breast Tissue Oncological Abnormalities Using Microwave Radio Thermometry

“…Low-noise amplifiers determine the overall noise performance of the receivers. Very wideband performance has been demonstrated in GaAs and CMOS technologies, respectively (Nosal, 2001;Jung et al, 2006;Xu et al, 2005& Wang et al, 2005. However, in most cases a noise figure NF>1.0 dB over a frequency range of DC -10 GHz has been achieved.…”
