AMPLITUDE-NOISE REDUCTION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ULTRA-LOW PHASE-NOISE OSCILLATORS

摘要

Embodiments of a microwave oscillator and method for amplitude noise reduction are generally described herein. The oscillator may include a resonator and an RF bridge to combine an incident and a reflected RF signal. The oscillator may further comprise an amplitude noise reduction loop, which may be configured to use a first baseband control signal to perform amplitude modulation (AM) of an oscillator feedback signal for reduction of amplitude noise on the oscillator output signal.
