Stability Analysis of Low Noise Amplifier for S Band Applications

This work aims to analyze various performance metrics of an LNA and arrive at an optimum values for the real time implementation. The various metrics considered here are, Stability factor, Group Delay, Load Pull Analysis and Reflection coefficient of the output of the Amplifier schematic. A FET based amplifier layout is considered for the performance evaluation, and input power range of 0 to 12 dBm is taken up, to arrive at an optimum input power for the Proposed LNA in the S Band.
