Abstract
In this paper, Phase locked microwave oscillator having the low phase noise and high stability for digital MMDS down converter was designed. we have been analyzed the low phase noise properties by the active device nonlinear equivalent circuits and derived the necessary and sufficient conditions for high stable voltage control oscillator. And it is applied to phase locked loop, we design the phase locked microwave oscillator of frequency synthesizer. Experimental results of designed phase locked oscillator shows -85dBc/Hz @ 10KHz phase noise properties and simulation result is -90Bc/Hz @ 10kHz respectively we shows that proposed low phase noise and stable conditions of phase locked microwave oscillator can be applied to design the high stable digital MMDS frequency synthesizer.
