% Compute the noise temperature of a receiver attached to an antenna.
tA is the ambient temperature of the antenna and tERX is the receiver
noise temperature. tF is the feeder noise temperature. This function
combines them to compute the noise temperature at the input.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
tR = TReceiver( tA, lFRX, tF, tERX )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Inputs
------
tA (1,1) Antenna temperature (deg-K)
lFRX (1,:) Feeder loss (dB)
tF (1,1) Feeder temperature (deg-K)
tERX (1,1) Effective input noise temperature of receiver (deg-K)
-------
Outputs
-------
tR (1,1) Temperature at input (deg-K)
