A Design of Ultra-low Phase Noise Frequency Source Based on High Phase Detection Frequency

This paper introduces a design of ultra-low phase noise frequency source based on high phase detection frequency. Frequency source is a very important part of modern electronic system. Radar, communication, space technology and so on are inseparable from frequency source. Its performance index directly affects the whole electronic system, and phase noise is one of the most important indicators. In this paper, the scheme of phase-locked technology with high phase detection is mainly used,the phase noise is better than -116dBc/Hz@1kHz, -120dBc/Hz@10kHz, -121dBc/Hz@100kHz when the output frequency is 4.5GHz. The technology of high phase discrimination and low phase noise frequency synthesis in this paper can also be extended to higher and more special frequency bands. It provides a solution of ultra-low phase noise for frequency sources of modern radar, electronic jamming and countermeasure systems. (paper)
