Abstract :
We present here an improved method of determining the intrinsic SSB mixer noise figure from noise measurements in single and "imperfect" balanced configurations. We describe the experimental set-up as applied to beam-lead Schottky diodes at 94GHz, and give results of NF, suppression factor and LO noise level.
