Abstract
In this paper, the phase locked harmonic oscillator(PLHO) using the analog PLL(Phase Locked Loop) is designed and implemented for a wireless LAN system. The harmonic oscillator is consisted of a ring resonator, a varactor diode and a PLL circuit. Because the fundamental fiequency of 8.5 GHz is used as the feedback signal for the PLL and the 2nd harmonic of 17.0 GHz is used as the output, a analog frequency divider for the phase comparison in the PLL system can be omitted. For the simple PLL circuit, the SPD(Sampling Phase Detector) as a phase comparator is used. The output power of the phase locked harmonic oscillator is 2.23 dBm at 17 GHz. The fundamental and 3rd harmonic suppressions are -31.5 dBc and -29.0 dBc, respectively. The measured phase noise characteristics are -87.6 dBc/Hz and -95.4 dBc/Hz at the of offset frequency of 1 kHz and 10 kHz from the carrier, respectively.
