Abstract

An impedance bandwidth enhancement technique for tuning a low noise amplifier (LNA) is presented. With the use of the compact microstrip resonant cell (CMRC) at the emitter pins of a bipolar junction transistor (BJT), the impedance bandwidth achieved is about 95%, for a simple single stage amplifier design. The LNA attains a gain of about 15 dB; also a low noise figure of 1.16 dB at 2.1 GHz and an average noise figure of about 1.5 dB across the operation bands have been achieved. © 2005 IEEE.
