    This document outlines the design of a low noise amplifier (LNA) for FM radio applications. The objectives are to design an LNA with a gain of 20 dB, noise figure of less than 2 dB, and bandwidth of 88-108 MHz. The schematic and simulation results show the LNA meets specifications, with a gain of 22 dB, noise figure of 0.88 dB, and good input and output matching across the FM band. Future work involves hardware implementation and testing to evaluate performance.

    LNA DESIGN FOR


    FM RADIO
    GUIDE : DR. PRASHANTHA KUMAR H
    SUHAS S
    16CE24F
    M.TECH 1ST YEAR

    Objectives

    LNA design for FM radio applications.

    To test the design using the local public FM radio stations.

    To enhance the design for better selectivity and sensitivity.

    Specifications

    A typical gain of about 20 dB

    Noise Figure of utmost 2 dB

    An input impedance of 50 .

    An operating bandwidth between 88 MHz to 108 MHz

    Schematic

    Simulation Results

    5
    The input reflection co-efficient
    is very low near the frequencies
    of interest.
    In such a scenario, an input
    matching network can be
    avoided, provided the values of
    remain within the tolerance
    limits.
    The high values of S11 at higher
    frequencies are not much of a
    concern since they are filtered
    beforehand.

    Simulation Results

    The input and output reflection


    coefficients are less than -15 dB
    near the frequencies of interest.

    This is an indicator of a good match


    at the source as well as the load
    end of the amplifier.

    Simulation Results

    7
    The forward transmission gain
    or S21 is greater than 20 dB at
    the corner frequencies.
    The gain rolls off quite steeply
    to reach a little over 0 dB for
    the third order harmonic (300
    MHz).
    This satisfies our requirement
    for selectivity as well as
    required gain.

    Simulation Results

    The noise figure is well below


    the threshold of 2 dB.

    At the mid-point of the band i.e


    100 MHz, NF is about 0.88 dB.

    Inference

    The amplifier has a very good gain of 22 dB and negligible


    reflection coefficients of -15 dB within the band of operation.

    The NF is about 0.9 dB, well below the specified 2 dB

    The input impedance is almost 50 in the absence of a matching


    network. However, it can be matched if greater efficiency is
    necessary.

    The bandwidth is as per specification as verified by the results.

    ROAD AHEAD

    Hardware implementation.

    Fabrication followed by testing and performance evaluation.
