Abstract
We propose an exact procedure to analytically calculate sets of noise param eters, such as the minimum noise figure, the noise resistance, and the opti mum source admittance of linear noisy two-ports with an arbitrary number of noise sources. With our method, the noise sources of the linear tao-port m ay exhibit any degree of crosscorrelation. The procedure has no restriction s as to the topology of the two-port and transformations of the network are not needed.
