Comparative Study of various LNA topologies Used for CMOS LNA Design

Abstract

      This paper analyzes various CMOS UWB LNA topologies. The paper presents an exclusive guideline for UWB LNA research work. The paper describes selection procedure of  LNA configuration for desired specifications as the UWB LNA has a major tradeoff among five main design parameters viz Bandwidth, NF, Gain, Power dissipation and Linearity.
