The evaluation is based on noise and complex correlation coefficient), Pospieszalski [2], and -parameter measurements of metal–semiconductor field-effect transistors and high electron-mobility transistors with different Danneville/Cappy [3], [4] with two temperatures, and Gupta gatewidths in the frequency range of 0.05–26 GHz. The models [5], [6] with only one drain noise source. The problem can be under investigation differ in the number of independent coef- reduced to the question: How many parameters are necessary ficients necessary to calculate the four noise parameters of the for noise modeling? Therefore, we compare in detail the Pucel device. The broad frequency range including radio-frequency model with three parameters and the Pospieszalski model with frequencies down to 50 MHz requires two differen
