The present world is ruled by wireless communication. From a telephone communication to satellite communication, the word “wireless” plays a major rule. In the recent years, the modem wireless communication in broadcast and microwave radio demands the properly designed Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) in receiver front ends for proper communication. The paper presents the design of high performance low noise amplifier at radio frequency regime. The LNA is implemented at operating frequency of 1.6 GHz and 2.6 GHz has been implemented at .18um CMOS process. LNA are regularly used in wireless communication receiver leading-ends due to their equity to intensify shaky Radio Frequency (RF) signals without summing additional noise. Cadence virtuoso tool has been used to implement the LNA design and the performance parameters are analyzed at operating frequency.
