Abstract

A low phase noise frequency synthesizer at X-Band which employs the subharmonic injection locking was designed and tested. The frequency synthesizer consists of two oscillators - master and slave : A 1.75GHz master oscillator made of PLL synthesizer produces 6th harmonic at 10.5GHz, which excites the following 10.5GHz slave oscillator. The realized frequency synthesizer has a 4.5dBm of output power, and a phase noise of -108dBc/Hz at the 100kHz offset frequency.
