  • Abstract
    The performance of electrically small antennas in the presence of noise is studied. Signal-to-noise ratios (S/N) are formulated and compared to the ideal case. It is found that cooling can result in a considerable increase of the product (bandwidth) \\times (S/N) . Some practical examples are presented.
