Solution

a) To determine the thermal noise power in watts, we can use the formula:

P = k * T * B

where P is the power in watts, k is Boltzmann's constant (1.38 x 10^-23 J/K), T is the temperature in Kelvin, and B is the bandwidth in Hz.

First, we need to convert the temperature from Celsius to Kelvin:

T = 27 + 273 = 300 K

Next, we can calculate the thermal noise power:

P = (1.38 x 10^-23 J/K) * (300 K) * (20,000 Hz)

P ≈ 8.28 x 10^-17 W

To convert the power to dBm, we can use the formula:

P(dBm) = 10 * log10(P/1mW)

P(dBm) = 10 * log10(8.28 x 10^-17 W / 1 x 10^-3 W)

P(dBm) ≈ -166.6 dBm

b) If the bandwidth is doubled to 40 KHz, we can use the same formula to calculate the new thermal noise power:

P' = (1.38 x 10^-23 J/K) * (300 K) * (40,000 Hz)

P' ≈ 1.66 x 10^-16 W

c) To calculate the RMS noise voltage for a 50 ohm load resistance and 50 ohm internal resistance, we can use the formula:

V = sqrt(4 * k * T * R * B)

where V is the RMS noise voltage, k is Boltzmann's constant, T is the temperature in Kelvin, R is the resistance, and B is the bandwidth in Hz.

Using the given values:

V = sqrt(4 * (1.38 x 10^-23 J/K) * (300 K) * (50 ohm) * (20,000 Hz))

V ≈ 1.92 x 10^-7 V
