Noise “Any unwanted input” Ø Limits systems ability to process weak signals Ø Sources: Ø 1. 2. 3. 4. Ø Random noise in resistors and transistors Mixer noise Undesired cross-coupling noise Power supply noise Dynamic range – capability of detecting weak signals in presence of large-amplitude signals
Noise (contd. ) Ø “noisiness” of the signal measure = signal-tonoise ratio (frequency dependant) Ø Random noise l External • • l Atmospheric Interstellar Receiver internal • • • Thermal Flicker noise (low frequency) Shot noise
“Sky” Noise
Noise factor Ø IEEE Standards: “The noise factor, at a specified input frequency, is defined as the ratio of (1) the total noise power per unit bandwidth available at the output port when noise temperature of the input termination is standard (290 K) to (2) that portion of (1) engendered at the input frequency by the input termination. ”
Noise factor (cont. ) Ø It is a measure of the degradation of SNR due to the noise added Ø Implies that SNR gets worse as we process the signal Ø Spot noise factor Ø The answer is the bandwidth
Noise factor (cont. ) Ø Quantitative measure of receiver performance wrt noise for a given bandwidth Ø Noise figure l Typically 8 -10 db for modern receivers Ø Multistage (cascaded) system
Sensitivity Ø Minimum detectable input signal level for a given output SNR (also called noise floor) Ø Not necessarily related to required output SNR Ø Example
Link Budget Ø “Quick and dirty” way of estimating RF link performance Prx, Ptx – received and transmitted power (d. B) Ø Grx, Gtx – antenna gain (d. Bi) Ø L – path loss Ø Amisc – miscellaneous attenuation Ø
Link Budget (cont. ) Ø Path loss (Friis formula): l l Ø Transmit power: l Ø L = 40 d. B + 20 log(d) @ 2. 4 GHz L = 48 d. B + 20 log(d) @ 5. 7 GHz 15 – 20 d. Bm (30 – 100 m. W) Antenna gain: given in decibels over an isotropic antenna (d. Bi) l 0 d. Bi (isotropic), 8 d. Bi (biquad), 15 d. Bi (helix), 24 d. Bi (parabolic)
Link Budget (cont. ) Ø Received power (senitivity) Orinocco Aironet 350 SNR 11 Mbps -82 d. Bm -85 d. Bm 16 d. B 5. 5 Mbps -87 d. Bm -89 d. Bm 11 d. B 2 Mbps -91 d. Bm 7 d. B 1 Mbps -94 d. Bm 4 d. B
Link Budget (cont. ) Ø Amisc: l Cables (@ 2. 4 GHz) • • • l RG 174: 2 [d. B/m] RG 58: 1 [d. B/m] RG 213: 0. 6 [d. B/m] IEEE 802. 3: 0. 3 [d. B/m] LMR-400: 0. 22 [d. B/m] Connectors (BNC, N, SMA) • 0. 1 – 1 d. B loss
