Design of LNA at 5.8GHz with Cascode and Cascaded Techniques Using T-Matching Network for Wireless Applications

Abstract

This project presents a 5.8 GHz Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) design with cascode and cascaded techniques using T-matching network applicable for IEEE 802.16 standard. The amplifier uses the FHX76LP Low Noise SuperHEMT FET. The design simulation process is done by using the Advance Design System (ADS) software. The cascode and cascaded low noise amplifier (LNA) produces a gain of 53.4dB and noise figure (NF) of 1.2dB. The input reflection (S 11) and output return loss (S 22) are-24.3dB and-23.9dB respectively. The input sensitivity is complying with the IEEE 802.16 standards.

“…Langkah selanjutnya adalah merancang rangkaian penyesuai impedansi untuk masing-masing tingkat penguat. Pada Gambar 2, terdapat tiga konfigurasi rangkaian penyesuai impedansi, yaitu input impedance matching network, interstage impedance matching network dan output impedance matching network [12]. Nilai-nilai yang diperoleh untuk masing masing penyesuai impedansi harus dikonversi pada nilai dimensi microstrip line melalui Persamaan 13 dan 14. karakteristik ketebalan (h) 1,016 mm, permitivitas ( r e ) 2,5, ketebalan konduktor (t) 0,036 mm dan loss tangent (tan δ) 0,0018.…”
