Pmrs. Moreira et al., DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION OF A FULLY INTEGRATED GAAS TUNED RECEIVER PREAMPLIFIER MMIC FOR OPTICAL SCM APPLICATIONS, IEE proceedings. Part J, Optoelectronics, 140(6), 1993, pp. 411-415
A tuned SCM optical receiver design integrated as a GaAs MMIC is repor
ted. The receiver is intended for use in a practical system and includ
es an integrated noise tuning network. A critical study of tuning netw
orks suitable for integration is undertaken, and the details of a nove
l design and optimisation strategy for such networks are discussed. Si
mulation results predict low noise and high gain performance, and veri
fy the validity of the design technique adopted.
