  • Abstract
    This paper presents the impact of the difference in the output reflection coefficients of the noise source between the hot and cold states on the extraction of the gain-bandwidth constant (kBG), the noise factors and the noise parameters of the noise receiver. It also presents the approaches to reduce the kBG dependence on the source impedance.
