  • Abstract
    This article deals with the improvement of the noise figure for three topologies of microwave active recursive filters. We show how, using a noise wave formalism , the noise factor of these filters can be effectively minimized by using appropriate unbalanced power dividers/combiners and an amplifier. A comparison between the different topologies is given. We start from measured results and validate our approach with simulated examples.
