Collantes, J.M., Pollard, R.D. and Sayed, M. (2002) Effects of DUT mismatch on the noise figure characterization: A comparative analysis of two Y-factor techniques. IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 51 (6). pp. 1150-1156. ISSN 0018-9456
Abstract
Device mismatch seriously degrades accuracy in noise figure characterization. The suitability of corrections to the gain definitions for a more precise noise figure evaluation for mismatched devices is investigated and compared to classical techniques. The effects of device mismatch on the noise figure of the noise-meter receiver and its impact on the final accuracy are analyzed.
