Title :
A CAD Solution to the Generalized Problem of Noise Figure Calculation
Author :
Rizzoli, V. ; Lipparini, A.
Abstract :
The paper describes a new algorithm for computing the noise figure of a linear two-port network of arbitrary topology. The discussion is oriented towards CAD applications, making the approach easy to be implemented into any existing general-purpose analysis and/or design program. A few sample results are compared with measured data drawn from the technical literature.
