In-Depth Design Space Exploration of 26.5-to-29.5-GHz 65-nm CMOS Low-Noise Amplifiers for Low-Footprint-and-Power 5G Communications Using One-and- Two -Step Design Optimization

Low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) play a significant role in modern millimeter-wave (mmWave) integrated circuits for fifth-generation (5G) communications systems. However, the proper analysis of their design tradeoffs that allow for a realistic topology comparison is impractical. The many conflicting spec...
