Abstract
In this paper, low phase noise push-push oscillator (OSC) using the metamaterial resonator for missile defense systems and satellite communication was design and implemented. The metamaterial resonator has the large coupling coefficient value, which makes a high Q value, and has reduced phase noise of OSC. The OSC with 1.8 V power supply has phase noise of -117 dBc/Hz @100 kHz in the 12 GHz. When it has been compared with metamaterial resonator and coventional spiral resonator, the reduced Q value has been -29.7 dB and -47.6 dB respectively. This low phase noise OSC using metamaterial resonator could be available to a OSC in X-band.
