Abstract:
This paper presents a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) using Common Gate (CG) topology for use in Ultra Wide Band (UWB) Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). The matching network is composed of series Ls1-Rs1 in series with a parallel Ls2-Rs2 to enhance the bandwidth at the input of the circuit. The high gain (S21) is achieved by using the inductor LC and the peaking inductor LD2. In addition, low NF is achieved. The LNA circuit is implemented using the 0.18µm process and the simulated result of S11 is below -8.0dB while a maximum forward gain (S21) of 18.6dB is achieved. The supply voltage for the LNA is 1.2V and has minimum Noise Figure (NFmin) of 2.649 dB. The output reflection coefficient S22 is below -10dB.
