Abstract
The following research paper forms the application of the Double-Gate (DG) MOSFET in High-Frequency (HF) applications, namely differential antenna design. The following design, implementation, and testing are based around the DG MOSFET and improve shortcomings previously exposed in literature, i.e., low input impedance, low output impedance, and poor gain values. Improvements in current supply and design considerations were made to improve low-noise signal integrity. The differential antenna amplifier provides a low noise spectral density of 188 pV/√Hz, with a flat-band response of 17 dB for a bandwidth of 40 MHz. The power efficiency of the antenna amplifier is 98 %.
Keywords
