@article{10902/10028, year = {2016}, month = {5}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10902/10028}, abstract = {This paper presents and discusses several methods for predicting the low-frequency (LF) noise at the output of a mm-wave detector. These methods are based on the extraction of LF noise source parameters from the single diode under a specific set of bias conditions and the transfer or conversion of these noise sources, under different operating conditions including cyclostationary regime, to the quasi-dc output of a mm-wave detector constructed with the same model of diode. The noise analysis is based on a conversion-matrix type formulation, which relates the carrier noisy sidebands of the input signal with the detector output spectrum through a pair of transfer functions obtained in commercial software. Measurements of detectors in individual and differential setups will be presented and compared with predictions.}, organization = {The authors would like to thank the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (MICINN) for the financial support provided through projects TEC2011-29264-C03-01, CONSOLIDER-INGENIO CSD2008-00068 (TERASENSE), TEC2014-58341-C4-1-R, FEDER co-funding, CONSOLIDER-INGENIO CSD2010-00064 and the University of Cantabria Industrial Doctorate programme 2014, project: “Estudio y Desarrollo de Tecnologías para Sistemas de Telecomunicación a Frecuencias Milimétricas y de Terahercios con Aplicación a Sistemas de Imaging en la Banda 90–100 GHz”.}, publisher = {Cambridge University Press}, publisher = {International Journal of Microwave and Wireless Technologies, 2016, 8 (3), 479–493}, title = {Noise conversion of Schottky diodes in mm-wave detectors under different nonlinear regimes: modeling and simulation versus measurement}, author = {Gutiérrez Asueta, Jéssica and Zeljami, Kaoutar and Villa Benito, Enrique and Aja Abelán, Beatriz and Fuente Rodríguez, Luisa María de la and Sancho Lucio, Sergio Miguel and Pascual Gutiérrez, Juan Pablo}, }
