= Effective input noise temperature
{wiki=Effective_input_noise_temperature}
Effective input noise temperature is a concept used in the field of electronics and communications, particularly in the context of amplifiers and receivers. It represents the equivalent temperature at which a system (like a radio receiver or an amplifier) would generate the same amount of thermal noise as the actual noise present in that system. This quantity is particularly important in understanding how noise impacts the performance of RF (radio frequency) systems.
