Abstract
The fundamentals of computer‐aided noise analysis of linear noisy microwave circuits are presented. The method is based on the description of noisy networks by correlation matrices, and allows the noise analysis of linear circuits of general topology exhibiting arbitrary correlations between the noise sources. The description of linear noisy networks by correlation matrices in different representations, the interconnection of noisy networks and the nodal analysis of noisy networks are treated. The correlation matrices of circuits or subcircuits exhibiting thermal noise may be calculated directly from its admittance matrix. The application of the method for the noise analysis of linear microwave amplifiers is discussed.
