Abstract

A new low phase noise Dielectric Resonator Parallel Feedback Oscillator(DRPFO) that is proposed in this paper has a simple structure so that it can be fabricated in low cost and with high performance. The proposed DRPFO is in a feedback loop oscillator configuration, which is composed of a low noise amplifier, a power amplifier, a power attenuator, a power divider and a parallel resonator feedback element that consists of a dielectric resonator coupled with two microstrip lines. The measured phase noise of DRPFO was less than -81 dBc/Hz at offset frequency 1 kHz of 10.75 GHz carrier frequency, and the frequency stability of DRPFO was less than $\pm$200 kHz over the temperature range of -40$^{\circ}$C to +60$^{\circ}$C.

본 논문에서는 저렴하고 성능이 우수하면서 간단한 구조를 갖는 새로운 저 위상잡음 유전체 공진 병렬 궤환 발진기가 제안된다. 제안된 유전체 공진 병렬 궤환 발진기는 저잡음 증폭기, 전력증폭기, 전력 감쇠기, 전력 분배기, 그리고 두 개의 마이크로스트립 선로와 결합된 유전체 공진기로 이루어지는 병렬 유전체 공진 궤환 요소로 구성된 궤환 루프 발진기 구조를 가지고 있다. 유전체 공진 병렬 궤환 발진기의 측정된 위상잡음은 캐리어 주파수 10.75 GHz, 오프셋 주파수 1kHz에서 81dBc/Hz 보다 작게 나타났으며, 온도에 따른 주파수 안정도는 주변온도 -4$0^{\circ}C$에서 6$0^{\circ}C$까지 +/- 200kHz를 나타내었다.
