  2. Low-noise amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-noise_amplifier

    A low-noise amplifier (LNA) is an electronic component that amplifies a very low-power signal without significantly degrading its signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Any electronic amplifier will increase the power of both the signal and the noise present at its input, but the amplifier will also introduce some additional noise.

  3. Quite Universal Circuit Simulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quite_Universal_Circuit...

    Quite Universal Circuit Simulator (Qucs) is a free-software electronics circuit simulator software application released under GPL.It offers the ability to set up a circuit with a graphical user interface and simulate the large-signal, small-signal and noise behaviour of the circuit.

  4. Low-noise block downconverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-noise_block_downconverter

    Also called a low-noise block, [1] [2] low-noise converter (LNC), or even low-noise downconverter (LND), [3] the device is sometimes inaccurately called a low-noise amplifier (LNA). [ 4 ] The LNB is a combination of low-noise amplifier, frequency mixer , local oscillator and intermediate frequency (IF) amplifier.

  5. RF front end - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RF_front_end

    An RF amplifier, often called the low-noise amplifier (LNA). Its primary responsibility is to increase the sensitivity of the receiver by amplifying weak signals without contaminating them with noise, so that they can stay above the noise level in succeeding stages. It must have a very low noise figure (NF). The RF amplifier may not be needed ...

  7. Tower Mounted Amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_Mounted_Amplifier

    A Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA), or Mast Head Amplifier (MHA), is a low-noise amplifier (LNA) mounted as close as practical to the antenna in mobile masts or base transceiver stations. A TMA reduces the base transceiver station noise figure (NF) and therefore improves its overall sensitivity ; in other words the mobile mast is able to receive ...

  8. Noise figure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_figure

    Noise figure (NF) and noise factor (F) are figures of merit that indicate degradation of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) that is caused by components in a signal chain.These figures of merit are used to evaluate the performance of an amplifier or a radio receiver, with lower values indicating better performance.

  9. Murchison Widefield Array - Wikipedia

    The M&C software maintains a state-based description of the hardware and an event-driven database describing the observation scheduling of the Instrument. M&C software commands several elements of the system including pointing and tracking of the beamformers, frequency selection of the receivers, correlation parameters for the correlator, and ...
