A Review on Tunable Low-Noise Amplifier for Ku/Ka-Band SATCOM Systems
摘要
Satellite communication, or SATCOM, is expanding quickly and piques the interest of researchers due to the growing need for greater data transmission speeds. In satellite communication, the Ku/Ka-band is regarded as the major frequency range due to its broad bandwidth capacity. Radio receivers in the Ku/Ka-band for satellite television require the low-noise amplifier (LNA), a crucial building piece at the receiver end. In this work, several high out-of-the-band rejection LNAs are thoroughly analyzed. Key parameters and design topologies for Ku- and Ka-band SATCOM systems and applications form the basis of this review. Comprehensive examples are also provided for the high out-of-band active and passive rejection/filtering techniques.
