The Design of Modern Microwave Oscillators for Wireless Applications : Theory and Optimization (Hardcover)

Description:

Delivering the best possible solution for phase noise and output power efficiency in oscillators
This complete and thorough analysis of microwave oscillators investigates all aspects of design, with particular emphasis on operating conditions, choice of resonators and transistors, phase noise, and output power. It covers both bipolar transistors and FETs. Following the authors' guidance, readers learn how to design microwave oscillators and VCOs that can be tuned over a very wide frequency range, yet have good phase noise, are low cost, and are small in size. All the essential topics in oscillator design and development are covered, including:
* Device and resonator technology
* Study of noise sources
* Analysis methods
* Design, calculation, and optimization methodologies
* Practical design of single and coupled oscillators
While most of the current literature in the field concentrates on classic design strategies based on measurements, simulation, and optimization of output power and phase noise, this text offers a unique approach that focuses on the complete understanding of the design process. The material demonstrates important design rules starting with the selection of best oscillator topology, choice of transistors, and complete phase noise analysis that leads to optimum performance of all relevant oscillator features. Also included are CMOS oscillators, which recently have become important in cellular applications. For readers interested in specialized applications and topics, a full chapter provides all the necessary references.
The contents of the text fall into two major categories:
* Chapters 1 through 9 deal with a very detailed and expanded single resonator oscillator, including a thorough treatment of both nonlinear analysis and phase noise
* Chapters 10 and 11 use the knowledge obtained and apply it to multiple coupled oscillators (synchronized oscillators)
This text is partially based on research sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the United States Army and conducted by Synergy Microwave Corporation. With the wealth of information provided for the analysis and practical design of single and synchronized low-noise microwave oscillators, it is recommended reading for all RF microwave engineers. In addition, the text's comprehensive, step-by-step approach makes it an excellent graduate-level textbook.

描述：
這本書完整且詳細地分析了微波振盪器的各個方面，特別強調操作條件、諧振器和晶體管的選擇、相位噪聲和輸出功率效率。它涵蓋了雙極晶體管和場效應晶體管。在作者的指導下，讀者將學習如何設計微波振盪器和電壓控制振盪器，使其能夠在非常廣泛的頻率範圍內調諧，同時具有良好的相位噪聲、低成本和小尺寸。書中涵蓋了振盪器設計和開發的所有重要主題，包括：
*器件和諧振器技術
*噪聲源的研究
*分析方法
*設計、計算和優化方法
*單個和耦合振盪器的實際設計
儘管目前該領域的大部分文獻集中在基於測量、模擬和優化輸出功率和相位噪聲的經典設計策略上，但本書提供了一種獨特的方法，重點在於對設計過程的全面理解。本書展示了從選擇最佳振盪器拓撲結構、晶體管的選擇到完整的相位噪聲分析的重要設計規則。書中還包括了CMOS振盪器，這在最近的蜂窩應用中變得重要。對於對特定應用和主題感興趣的讀者，一個完整的章節提供了所有必要的參考資料。本書的內容分為兩大類：
*第1章到第9章詳細介紹了單個諧振器振盪器，包括對非線性分析和相位噪聲的全面研究
*第10章和第11章利用所獲得的知識，將其應用於多個耦合振盪器（同步振盪器）
本書部分基於國防高級研究計劃局（DARPA）和美國陸軍贊助的研究，由Synergy Microwave Corporation進行。由於提供了分析和實際設計單個和同步低噪聲微波振盪器的豐富信息，它是所有射頻微波工程師的推薦閱讀。此外，本書的全面、逐步的方法使其成為一本優秀的研究生教材。
