SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO- abbrev. as S/N, usually expressed in dB- Ratio of the relative strength of the desired
signal power to the noise power at the same point.
- Expresses in decibels the amount by which a signal level exceeds its corresponding noise

- 10dB – for barely intelligible speech- 90dB or more – for compact-disc audio
system- Minimum requirement S/N ratio in
corresponding end instruments:
a. Voice = 30dB
b. Video = 45dB
c. Data = 15 dB

NOISE FIGURE- abbrev. as NF or just F- Is a figure of merit, indicating how much a
component, stage, or series of stages degrades the signal-to-noise ratio of a system
- Is a measure of the noise produced by a practical network compared to an ideal network (i.e one that is noiseless)

- Is equal to the S/N of an ideal system divided by the S/N at the output of the receiver or amplifier under test, both working at the same temperature over the same bandwidth and fed from the same source.
- Degradation of the signal-to-noise ratio by the network
- Occasionally called Noise Factor- Is a measure of the noisiness of the input
stage. It determines the effect that the internal noise, produced by that stage, has on the received signal.

NF(dB) = 0
B. For a network that contributes some noise

NF > 1

EXAMPLES1. A radio receiver produces a noise power of
200mW with no signal. The output level increases to 5W when a signal is applied. Calculate (S + N)/N as a power ratio and in decibels.
2. A transistor amplifier has a measured S/N power of 10 at its input and 5 at its output. Calculate the transistors’ noise figure in dB.

EXAMPLES3. The signal power at the input to an amplifier
is 100µW and the noise power is 1µW. At the output, the signal power is 1W and the noise power is 30mW. What is the amplifier noise figure, as a ratio?
4. The signal at the input of an amplifier has an S/N of 42dB. If the amplifier has a noise figure of 6dB, what is the S/N at the output(in dB)?

EQUIVALENT NOISE TEMPERATURE
- The thermal noise that the device adds to a system
- It is the absolute temperature of a resistor that, connected to the input of a noiseless amplifier of the same gain, would produce the same noise at the output as the device under discussion.

ADVANTAGES OF NOISE TEMPERATURE
1. It is additive, like noise power
2. For low noise levels is that it shows a greater variation for any given noise-level change than does the noise figure; changes are easier to grasp in their true perspective.
