  • Abstract
    A Ku-Band low noise amplifier has been designed with the gain of 8.90 dB and 2.19 dB noise figure for satellite receiver. The parameters are optimized by using Microwave Office Simulator (AWR) Ver. 2006. The size of the monolithic chip is 0.316 mm2. The LNA is designed to operate at 12 GHz.
