Advanced Microwave Circuits and Systems

This book is based on recent research work conducted by the authors dealing with the designand development of active and passive microwave components, integrated circuits andsystems. It is divided into seven parts. In the first part comprising the first two chapters,alternative concepts and equations for multiport network analysis and characterization areprovided. A thru-only de-embedding technique for accurate on-wafer characterization isintroduced. The second part of the book corresponds to the analysis and design of ultra-wideband low-noise amplifiers (LNA).
