Practical Measurement of Effective Antenna Noise Factor and Noise Equivalent Bandwidth.

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA315400 | Open PDF

Abstract:

Effective Antenna Noise Factor is a measure of external radio noise widely used in the prediction of link performance and in surveys of the noise environment. The practicalities of accurately estimating this quantity and a novel technique for measuring the Noise Equivalent Bandwidth of a complete receiving system are described.
