Low-noise amplifier design (LNA) is a critical step when designing a receiver front- end. For the broadband technologies and particularly ultra-wideband (UWB) system, designing the LNA becomes more challenging. This master thesis mainly focuses on the LNA design for the European UWB recommendation, i.e. LNA covering the 6 - 9 GHz spectrum. Moreover, better understandings of the design process in correlation with the implementing of the LNA on a printed circuit board (PCB) were expected. The LNA was manufactured, assembled and measured with network analyzer. This report presents a complete functional design of an UWB LNA.
