Abstract
We propose an exact procedure to analytically calculate sets of noise parameters, such as the minimum noise figure, the noise resistance, and the optimum source admittance of linear noisy two-ports with an arbitrary number of noise sources. With our method, the noise sources of the linear two-port may exhibit any degree of crosscorrelation. The procedure has no restrictions as to the topology of the two-port and transformations of the network are not needed
