In first stage of each microwave receiver, there is a
Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) stage, and this LNA plays an
important role to determine the quality factor of the receiver.
The design of a LNA requires the trade-off of many important
parameters including gain, Noise Figure (NF), stability, power
consumption, cost and design complexity. In this paper, we have
designed and simulate a single stage stable LNA circuit having
gain 11.78 dB and noise figure 1.86 dB using microwave BJT
AT3103 with Agilent package Advance Design Systems (ADS).
This LNA operates at center frequency of 2 GHZ and it can be
used in L-Band satellite modem for tracking applications.
