Filtering Third-Order Distortion

a. Given the system shown in Figure 7-54, find the gain, noise figure, coherent ITOI, and noncoherent ITOI of the three-element amplifier cascade. Ignore the filter in these calculations.

Figure 7-54

b. We apply two input tones to the cascade. Both tones are at –22 dBm. Tone #1 is at 150 MHz, and tone #2 is at 200 MHz. Find the power and frequency of each of the four tones shown on the output of the LPF.
