Designed Mathmatical Model of LNA , Cont’d Characterization of Non-Linearity (AM/AM) Non-linearity of LNA may be characterized by following equation. Let x(t) is input to a nonlinear pass band model. Output y (t) of this system is given by y(t) = a1x(t) + a2x2(t) + a3x3(t) + a4x4(t) + a5x4(t) Baseband equivalent of y(t) is given as follows. ybb(t) = (a1+ a3│x(t) │2+ a5│x(t) │4)│x (t)│ - - - eq. 1 Input Signal magnitude and these three coefficients (a3,a5 ,a1) are combined according to the above equation to obtain the AM/AM output as even order harmonics( a2, a4, a6 …) do not produce Inter-Modulation (IM) products therefore they are not taken into account in calculation. Intermodulation is one of the major causes of distortion in RF systems. FPGA Based System Design
Characterization of Non-Linearity (AM/AM) In order to quantify intermodulation “third intercept point (IP3)” has been devised. Definition of IP3 The point where the linear gain (a2A2) and 3rd order non-linearity (20log(3a3A3/4) )intercept with the increase in level of input signal (A) is called 3rd order intercept point (IP3). It is a given value and is used to calculate a3 and P1dB ( 1 dB compression point) FPGA Based System Design
