The lowest input signal power level which will produce a detectable
output signal from a microwave component, determined by the
thermal noise generated within the microwave component itself. The
noise floor limits the ultimate sensitivity to weak signals of a
microwave system, since any signal below the noise floor will result
in an output signal with a signal-to-noise ratio of less than one and
will be difficult to recover.
