Purpose This study aims to present two stage pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor-based low noise amplifier (LNA) designed using low temperature co-fire ceramic (LTCC) technique for ultra-high frequency (UHF) band. The LNA operates in the frequency range of (400∼500) MHz which is suitable for wireless communication applications. Design/methodology/approach This LNA uses resistive capacitive (RC) feedback in the first stage to have wide bandwidth and interstage network for gain enhancement. By using external RC feedback, stability is improved and noise matching in the input stage is isolated by decoupling inductor. The excellent performance parameters including gain, noise figure (NF), wideband and linearity are attained without affecting the power consumption, compactness and cost of the proposed design. Findings Simulation is carried out using advanced design software and the result shows that gain of 33.7 dB, NF 0.416 dB and 1 dB compression point (P1dB) of 18.59 dBm are achieved with a supply voltage of 2.5 V. The return loss of input and output are −19.3 dB and −10.5 dB, respectively. From the above aforementioned parameters, it is confirmed that the proposed LNA is a promising candidate for receivers where high gain and very low NF are always demandable with good linearity for applications operating in the UHF band. Originality/value The innovation of the proposed LNA is that the concurrent attainment of high gain, low NF, wideband, optimum input matching, good stability by RC feedback and interstage network using LTCC technique to achieve robustness, low cost and compactness to prove the applicability of design for wireless applications.

An oscillator is a vital component as the energy source in microwave telecommunication system. Microwave oscillators designed using Gunn diode have poor DC to RF efficiency. IMPact Ionization Avalanche Transit-Time diode (IMPATT) oscillators have the drawback of poor noise performance. The transistorized oscillators have a limitation to the maximum oscillation frequency which means that they cannot be used for oscillators designed for high frequencies. To design negative series feedback Dielectric Resonator Oscillator (DRO), the resonant unit uses a dielectric resonator (DR) since it is small in size, light in weight, has high-Quality ([Formula: see text]) factor, better stability and also it is inexpensive. It has the benefits of low-phase noise, low cost, miniaturization, high stability, applicable for devices designed at high frequencies and had already been widely applied, so the research on microwave dielectric oscillator has also been one of the focus of today’s microwave integrated circuits. DRO is widely used in electronic warfare, missile, radar and communication systems. The DRO incorporates High-Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) as an active device since it offers higher power-added efficiency combined with excellent low-noise figures and performance. The entire circuit of DRO using HEMT at 26[Formula: see text]GHz is designed using Agilent Advanced Design System (ADS) software. In this, DRO different measurements of parameters are done such as output power which is typically [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]dBm for 26[Formula: see text]GHz DRO, phase noise at 10[Formula: see text]kHz offset for 26[Formula: see text]GHz DRO it is 80[Formula: see text]dBc/Hz. The frequency pushing and frequency pulling for 26[Formula: see text]GHz DRO its typical values are 30[Formula: see text]kHz/V and 1[Formula: see text]MHz, respectively.
