Mobile Phone RF Front End LNA Design
The mobile phone exponential growth in network data has demanded increased performance from the RF Front End to support this growth. This in turn has demanded more complex requirements for the LNA, filters, switches and power amplifiers (PA) in the RFFE (RF Front End). This talk will focus on the LNA requirements, including those imposed from carrier aggregation and investigate how we can improve the LNA noise figure, linearity, size and cost. By reviewing LNA design fundamentals we can learn what technology is best suited to meet these high-performance demands.
