A 18‐36 GHz Noise Cancelling Low‐Noise Amplifier With 2.9 dB NF in 130 nm SiGe BiCMOS
This paper presents a broadband noise‐canceling low‐noise amplifier (LNA) implemented in a 130‐nm SiGe BiCMOS process. The first stage employs a parallel architecture, combining a common‐base amplifier with a resistive feedback common‐emitter amplifier, to achieve noise cancellation.

A K‐band eight‐element reconfigurable phased‐array receiver with high Tx‐band rejection
Abstract A K‐band eight‐element phased‐array receiver is proposed, featuring a reconfigurable beam count and high Tx‐band rejection, tailored for satellite communication applications. By precisely designing the inter‐stage and output matching networks of the four‐stage low‐noise amplifier, the Tx‐band rejection of the receiver can be effectively ...

Active quasi circulator: Comprehensive review and performance comparison
To cope up with the increased data transmission rate due to the modern multiband wireless communication systems, the three‐port circulator must be equipped with the ability to operate in different frequency levels while having adequate bandwidth. Thus, designing circulator as an antenna interface device becomes a challenging, particularly active‐quasi ...

A compact 60‐GHz on‐chip bandpass filter in GaAs technology
A compact 60‐GHz on‐chip bandpass filter (BPF) is presented using gallium arsenide (GaAs) technology. The measurements show that it has a centre frequency of 60.2 GHz with a bandwidth of 14%, and the minimum insertion loss (IL) within the passband is 2.57 dB. The chip size, excluding the feedings, is about 0.265 mm × 0.184 mm. Abstract A compact 60‐GHz
