  • Abstract
    The noise parameter measurement needs to be faster and faster. So, we need to use a simple and reliable method. The method that we propose here uses only a network analyzer and few passive impedances placed at the input of the DUT. We describe only the determination of the receiver gain. The determination of the other parameters is more conventional.
