Abstract :
Classic work on optimized heterodyne receivers has concentrated on the network aspects of mixers with limited emphasis on device properties. We present experimental results of GaAs Schottky-barrier diode noise measurements in the frequency range from 0.1 to 88 GHz and a detailed analysis of noise generation in these diodes which can explain the observed current and frequency dependence.
