= Equivalent noise resistance
{wiki=Equivalent_noise_resistance}
Equivalent noise resistance is a concept used in electrical engineering and communication systems to characterize the noise performance of a device or circuit, particularly in the context of amplifiers and receivers. It is defined as the resistance that, if placed at the input of the amplifier, would generate the same amount of thermal noise as the actual noise produced by the amplifier or circuit itself at a given temperature.
