Chapter 8, Problem 8.49P

Design an open-ended shunt-stub matching network to match a half-wave dipole transmitting antenna to a source with 50-Ω impedance. Now suppose this antenna network is to be used as a receiver. Use a Smith Chart to determine the impedance looking into the matching network from the antenna.

Problem 3. A receiver front end has a noise figure of 10 dB and a gain of 60 dB and a bandwidth of 12 MHz. The input signal power is 10-11 W. The antenna temperature is 180° K. Find Te, Ts, Nout, SNRin and SNRout. You may use To=290° K and Boltzmann's constant equals 1.38 x 10-23 J/K.
