The front-end consists of a low-noise amplifier, two band pass filters in C-band and L-band, a down-converter and an intermediate frequency amplifier. To reduce noise figure and increase bandwidth, the low-noise amplifier was designed using T-type of matching network with negative feedback. The down-converter used a voltage controlled oscillator with phase locked loop to reduce the phase noise. The front-end converts input signals from C-band (3.4 GHz-4.2 GHz) to the L-band (950 MHz-1750 MHz). The low-noise block has successfully been designed and fabricated with parameters: Overall gain is greater than 60 dB; the noise figure is less than 1dB; phase noise of local oscillator obtains-107.57dBc/Hz at 50KHz. date: 2016-04 date_type: published publisher: Research India Publications full_text_status: public publication: International Journal of Applied Engineering Research volume: 11 number: 8 pagerange: 5646-5652 refereed: FALSE issn: 0973-4562 citation: Tran Van, Hoi and Nguyen Xuan, Truong and Ngo Thi, Lanh and Bach, Gia Duong (2016) Design of aC-Band Low-Noise Block Front-end for Satellite Receivers.
