Equivalent noise resistance
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In telecommunication, an equivalent noise resistance is a quantitative representation in resistance units of the spectral density of a noise-voltage generator, given by where Wn is the spectral density, k is the Boltzmann's constant, T0 is the standard noise temperature (290 K), so
.
Note: The equivalent noise resistance in terms of the mean-square noise-generator voltage, e2, within a frequency increment, Δ f, is given by
