• In this letter, we present the design of a V- band low-noise amplifier for intersatellite crosslink receivers. The test vehicle, realized on industrial metamorphic gallium arsenide technology, operates from 57 to 66 GHz exhibiting 23-dB gain and an average 1.8-dB noise figure. Particular attention was devoted to the analysis and synthesis of an alternative bias injection topology to obtain a sharp gain roll-off at lower frequencies, thus avoiding the insertion, at system level, of an image-reject filter.
