This ho-nodyne receiver mainly consists of a diffexential Low Noise Amplifier （LNA） circuit followed by a down-converting mixer. The proposed LNA circuit with a noise canceling resistor is connected to the CMOS device＇s body to reduce the substrate thermal noise. Simulation and measuremnt results show that the chip can reduce the froat-end Noise Figure （NF） about 0.5dB and achieve the Conversion Gain （03） of 19.44-21.57 dB and double-sideband NF less than 7.8 dB. Also, the input third-order interoept point （IIP3） is - 11 dBm, and the input second-order intercept point （IIP2） is 49 dBm. Fabricated in TSMC 0.18 tan technology, this chip occupies only 0. 167 Iron2 and dissipates power 59.2 roW.展开更多

However, as the voltage and current used for the measurement are increased, the size of the inductor or resistor being used also needs to be increased, so it would be virtually impossible to make an accurate measurement. Because of this, the authors have developed a novel measurement method for line impedance using LC resonance, which the authors describe first place. In the second place, the authors propose another line impedance. The novel method is that the rectangular wave with minimum voltage is injected into the distribution line system. By means of this method, the line capacitance and the line inductance can be measured. These proposals are confirmed by the simulation or experiment. Finally, the frequency response analysis method is to be examined, whose mechanism and results are to be presented and discussed.展开更多
