Abstract

The low noise amplifier is one of the basic functional blocks in communication systems. The main interest of the LNA at the input of the analog processing chain is to amplify the signal without adding significant noise. In this work, we have modeled a LNA for radar reception systems operating around 11 GHz, using the technique of impedance transformations with Smith chart utility. The type of transistor used is: the transistor HEMT AFP02N2-00 of Alpha Industries®. The results show that the modeled amplifier has a gain greater than 20 dB, a noise figure less than 2 dB, input and output reflection coefficients lower than -20 dB and unconditional stability.

Abstract

This article presents a three-band low noise amplifier (LNA) in microstrip technology based on composite right left handed transmmision line (CRLH TL) resonators for multi-band behavior, which has been designed to meet all the criteria that determine the quality of its operation. The transistor used is biased via a transmission line and matched by λ/4 transformer filters with CRLH-TL type resonators at the output to establish multiband behavior with improved band rejection to suppress unwanted frequencies and interference. The results demonstrate excellent performance at three frequencies: 900 MHz (15.03 dB gain), 2.1 GHz (13.58 dB gain), and 3.5 GHz (12.57 dB gain), with a noise figure below 2 dB and unconditional stability. The size of the proposed amplifier is 73×63 ??2 in area.

Abstract

This paper presents a broadband Doherty power amplifier (DPA) for Sub-6 GHz 5G wireless applications, integrating a metamaterial-based harmonic control circuit to suppress the 2nd and 3rd harmonics. The design employs a CGH40010F transistor on a Rogers RO3004C substrate. All results are obtained from simulations, while the resonator has been experimentally validated. The proposed approach enhances drain efficiency under output back-off (OBO) conditions without compromising linearity. Simulation results show a gain of 12.2–16.18 dB, with drain efficiency from 50.42 % to 79.83 %. Efficiency remains high at 3 dB and 6 dB back-off, ranging from 50.8–75.6 % and 36–62.8 %, respectively. These findings demonstrate the DPA’s potential for next-generation base stations requiring compact, efficient, and wideband amplifiers, offering a practical solution for modern wireless communication systems. The novelty lies in combining broadband DPA design with harmonic suppression via metamaterials, providing improved efficiency and spectral performance.
