In this paper, we demonstrate the 6-port network technique for the extraction of noise correlation matrix of a 2-port DUT and thus its noise parameters. The passive 6-port network which is extended to an 8-port is designed using five Wilkinson power dividers, and a 90° hybrid. Three Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA) as well as SP4T switch are incorporated into the now 8-port network structure, components which are all modeled in Advanced Design System (ADS). The equations of the proposed technique are applied to the noise spectral density from the output of the 8-port network, which enable the extraction of the noise correlation matrix as well as the noise parameters of a 2-port DUT. Comparison of the noise correlation matrix and noise parameters of AFM02N5 transistor, in ADS library, obtained from the simulation of the 6-port network technique, with that from direct device simulation shows perfect agreement; thereby validating the proposed technique.
