Taur, Y., 1980: Josephson-junction mixer analysis using frequency-conversion and noise-correlation matrices. IEEE Trans. Electron. Dev., ED-27, 1921-1928.

A complete characterization and optimization have been carried out for an externally pumped Josephson-junction mixer. A noise-driven nonlinear pump equation is first solved in the time domain on a computer in order to obtain a conversion matrix and noise-correlation matrix for the small-signal current and voltage. A set of linear circuit equations formed by the matrices is then solved in the frequency domain for the mixer noise temperature and conversion efficiency. Finally, optimization is made with respect to circuit, bias, and junction parameters to find the ultimate theoretical performance.
