摘要:
A low-noise cryogenic oscillator has a resonant circuit formed of superconducting material for generating a signal at a desired frequency. A linear amplifier and a limiter are electrically connected to the resonant circuit at first, second and third locations. A buffer amplifier is electrically connected to the resonant circuit at a fourth location and applies the signal generated by the resonant circuit to a load. The first, second, third and fourth locations are selected to minimize the impedance from those locations to ground at 1/f frequencies. The resonant circuit, the linear amplifier, the limiter and the buffer amplifier are all maintained at a temperature below the critical temperature of the superconducting material.

An ultra-low phase noise voltage controlled oscillator uses a single bipolar transistor Colpitts oscillator circuit and a noise-reducing negative feedback path consisting of a capacitor and a second element which may be a second capacitor, an inductor or a resistor. The negative feedback path is kept separate from any DC biasing paths in the circuit. A pair of varactor diodes are used to provide resonant frequency control.

A voltage controlled oscillator has a cross-coupled negative resistance cell formed as an integrated circuit connected to off-chip components of a high-Q resonant tank circuit. To counteract spurious oscillations brought about by package parasitics caused by the interconnection of the chip to the external components, the cell is provided with a degeneration impedance. Typically, a pure inductor is used if all the elements of the tank circuit are off-chip. In a case where the tank circuit includes an on-chip fixed capacitor, the degeneration impedance may take the form of a capacitor.

Oscillation in which unwanted vibration (B mode) is surely suppressed while stable oscillation by principal vibration (C mode) is obtained is obtained. In a Colpitts oscillator including a piezoelectric vibrator, a transistor, and a first and second divided capacitive components, by inserting a feedback circuit formed by connecting a third capacitive component and a first inductor in series between a connection midpoint between the first capacitive component and the second capacitive component and an emitter of the transistor, inserting a second inductor in parallel with the second capacitive component, and setting the parallel resonance frequency of the second capacitive component and the second inductor in the vicinity of the oscillation frequency of the oscillator, the frequency band in which the negative resistance of the circuit side seen from the piezoelectric vibrator appears is set to a narrow band containing only a desired frequency to suppress unwanted vibration of the oscillator.

摘要:
A method for cancelling phase noise in a radar signal is described herein. In accordance with one embodiment, the method includes transmitting an RF oscillator signal, which represents a local oscillator signal including phase noise, to a radar channel and receiving a respective first RF radar signal from the radar channel. The first RF radar signal included at least one radar echo of the transmitted RF oscillator signal. Further, the method includes applying the RF oscillator signal to an artificial radar target composed of circuitry, which applies a delay and a gain to the RF oscillator signal, to generate a second RF radar signal. The second RF radar signal is modulated by a modulation signal thus generating a frequency-shifted RF radar signal. Further, the method includes subtracting the frequency-shifted RF radar signal from the first RF radar signal.

A low-noise oscillator circuit with an amplifier element for negative feedback, specifically a transistor. In addition to a positive feedback of the oscillator transistor, provision is made for a negative-feedback loop with a pass band of 0 (thus DC coupling) to 1/4 to 1/100 of the oscillation frequency of the oscillator, in order to regulate out fluctuations of the current of the amplifier element.

A push-push broadband dielectric resonator oscillator circuit that operates in the K and Ka band frequency range has two oscillator circuits that oscillate at the same fundamental frequency. An antiphaseal relationship is maintained between the two oscillators through the use of a dielectric resonator and the desired frequency is obtained by vectorially combining the output signals of the two oscillators that have the antiphase relationship to obtain an output frequency that is twice the fundamental frequency of operation of each of the individual dielectric resonator oscillator circuits.
