MDS and SFDR A large, parabolic antenna feeds satellite signals into a receiver with an 18 MHz bandwidth and a 0.7 dB noise figure. The antenna noise temperature is 290◦K, and the ITOI of the receiver is −40 dBm.

a. What is the MDS?

b. What is the third-order limited SFDR?

c. Assuming the system needs about 35 dB of SNR to demodulate these signals, what is the minimum signal power the receiver can process?
