Noise Model
The equivalent noise current source is used for thermal noise in ohmic resistance:

For the transfer current, shot noise is assumes as:

The noise resulting from the current injected across the BE junction into the emitter

The currents across the other junctions are assumed to have a shot noise component only

Noise from avalanche generation within the internal BC depletion region is modelled as shot noise

giving for the total noise contribution within the BC junction
