Also, it consumes less current compared to other topology which adopts a switched parallel transistor technique. The proposed LNA is designed using a 0.18-µm CMOS technology. The LNA core draws only 2.6 mA from a 1 V supply voltage. The S11 and S22 of the proposed LNA are less than −10 dB in the four frequency bands. The noise figure is less than 3.5 dB. The power gain is larger than 20 dB.","PeriodicalId":367154,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Workshop Series on Intelligent Radio for Future Personal Terminals","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116698189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a repeater system, the performance got worse caused by feedback channel and phase noise. In order to cancel feedback channel, we use adaptive equalizer such as NLMS and RLS. And block type pilot is a common pilot pattern in LTE-Advanced uplink standard. So the phase noise compensator exploits block type pilot. Instead of estimating phase noise in other algorithms, the proposed method directly estimates the interference components caused by phase noise and improves estimation accuracy. After that, we reconstruct the interference matrix and suppress the interferences by the inverse matrix method.
