  • Abstract
    A tuned SCM optical receiver design integrated as a GaAs MMIC is reported. The receiver is intended for use in a practical system and includes an integrated noise tuning network. A critical study of tuning networks suitable for integration is undertaken, and the details of a novel design and optimisation strategy for such networks are discussed. Simulation results predict low noise and high gain performance, and verify the validity of the design technique adopted
