Specification-Governed Telecommunication and High-Frequency-Electronics Aspects of Low-Noise Amplifier Research

TLDR
This chapter aims to illustrate the convergence of communications, circuits and antennas, which is necessary in millimeter-wave LNA research, and some high-frequency amplifier electronics that were neglected in Chap.
Abstract
The first part of this chapter focuses on placing millimeter-wave research in the context of telecommunication. The second part focuses more strongly on some high-frequency amplifier electronics that were neglected in Chap. 1. In essence, this chapter aims to illustrate the convergence of communications, circuits and antennas, which is necessary in millimeter-wave LNA research. These apparently unrelated aspects of LNA research can furthermore be treated in a single chapter because they set the research constraints (i.e., result in design specifications). For example, there may be a requirement for a 60 GHz communication network deploying a certain type of modulation, but with a particular gain and noise figure; this, once again, illustrates the multidisciplinary nature of LNA research.
