The carrier tracking has to be basically completed for accurate positioning of Galileo satellite system. The FLL for tracking frequency errors is robust to dynamic stress causing changes of propagation time but hardly tracks accurate carrier tracking. The PLL for tracking phase errors provides accurate carrier tracking but is sensitive to dynamic stress and its tracking performance is decreased when high dynamics exist. In this paper, we design the carrier tracking loop with the FLL-assisted PLL loop filter and co-operations of FLL and PLL to achieve accurate carrier tracking in high dynamic stress. we prove the performance of designed carrier tracking loop via simulations.

This paper addresses the phase noise analysis of high-speed DH-PLL(Digital Hybrid Phase-Locked Loops) frequency synthesizer. Because of the additional quantization noise of D/A converter in DH-PLL, the phase noise of DH-PLL is increased than the conventional PLL. Three kinds of noise sources such as reference input, D/A converter, and VCO(Voltage Controlled Oscillator) are considered to analyze the phase noise. It largely depends on the closed loop bandwidth and frequency synthesis division ratio(N) so that we can decide the optimal closed loop bandwidth to minimize the phase noise of DH-PLL. It is shown that the simulation results closely match with the results of analytical approach.

Phase-locked loops (PLL) based on the synchronous reference frame (SRF-PLL) have recently become the most widely-used for grid synchronization in three phase grid-connected inverters. However, it is difficult to study their performance since they are nonlinear systems. To estimate the performances of a SRF-PLL, a canonical small-signal linearized model has been developed in this paper. Based on the proposed model, several significant specifications of a SRF-PLL, such as the capture time, capture rang, bandwidth, the product of capture time and bandwidth, and steady-state error have been investigated. Finally, a noise model of a SRF-PLL has been put forward to analyze the noise rejection ability by computing the SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) of a SRF-PLL. Several simulation and experimental results have been provided to verify and validate the obtained conclusions. Although the proposed model and analysis method are based on a SRF-PLL, they are also suitable for analyzing other types of PLLs.

This work describes the development and comparison of two phase-locked loops (PLLs) based on a 65-nm CMOS technology. The PLLs incorporate two different topologies for the output voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO): LC cross-coupled and differential Colpitts. The measured locking ranges of the LC cross-coupled VCO-based phase-locked loop (PLL1) and the Colpitts VCO-based phase-locked loop (PLL2) are 119.84-122.61 GHz and 126.53-129.29 GHz, respectively. Th e output powers of PLL1 and PLL2 are -8.6 dBm and -10.5 dBm with DC power consumptions of 127.3 mW and 142.8 mW, respectively. Th e measured phase noise of PLL1 is -59.2 at 10 kHz offset and -104.5 at 10 MHz offset, and the phase noise of PLL2 is -60.9 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset and -104.4 dBc/Hz at 10 MHz offset. The chip sizes are $1,080{\mu}m{\times}760{\mu}m$ (PLL1) and $1,100{\mu}m{\times}800{\mu}m$ (PLL2), including the probing pads.

In this paper, phase noise analysis result for 2.4 GHz PLL(phase locked loop) using SPD(sample phase detector) is proposed. It can be used for high performance frequency synthesizer's LO(local oscillator) to extend output frequency range or for LO of offset PLL to reduce a division rate or for clock signal of DDS(direct digital synthesizer). Before manufacturing, theoretical estimation of PLL's phase noise performance should be performed. In order to calculate phase noise of PLL using SPD, Leeson model is used for modeling phase noise of VCO(voltage controlled oscillator) and OCXO(ovened crystal oscillator). After theoretically analyzing phase noise of PLL, optimized loop filter bandwidth was determined. And then, phase noise of designed loop filter was calculated to find suitable OP-Amp. Also, the calculated result of phase noise was compared with the measured one. The measured phase noise of PLL was -130 dBc/Hz @ 10 kHz.

This paper presents a new PLL clock generator that can improve a jitter noise characteristics and acquisition process by designing a multi-PFD(Phase Frequency Detector) and an adaptive charge pump circuit. The conventional PLL has not only a jitter noise caused from such a demerit of the wide dead zone and duty cycle, but also a long delay interval that makes a high speed operation unable. An advanced multi-structured PFD circuit using the TSPC(True Single Phase Clocking) circuit is proposed, in which it shows an excellent functionalities in terms of the jitter noises by designing its circuit with the exact dead zone and duty cycle. Our new designed adaptive charge pump in the loop filter of a PLL can improve an acquisition characteristic by adaptively increasing of current. The Hspice simulation is done to evaluate the performance of the proposed circuit. Simulation result shows that our PLL has under 0.01ns in the dead zone, no influence from the duty cycle of input signals and under 50ns in the acquisition time. This circuit will be able to be used in develops of high-performance microprocessors and digital systems.

A phase lock loop (PLL) circuit is a wellknown electronic circuit in communication engineering and other areas. In this paper, we present application of the PLL and fuzzy logic for DC motor control which are mixed well to be more effective for motor control. With this scheme, the control system can reach the set point rapidly, especially, it can eliminate noises. In addition, the PLL makes the system to have more stability; whereas, fuzzy logic controls helping PLL to be able to lock rapidly for a good response. The experiment result shows that the proposed control system works more efficacious. By performance comparison between the pure PLL control and the hybrid architecture of PLL with the fuzzy control, the result reveals the hybrid control ...

In this paper, using third-order system of the PLL we'll analyze the aspect of flicker noise appearing troubles in the low frequency band. Since it is difficult to analyze mathematically flicker noise in the third-order system of the PLL, introducing the concept of pseudo-damping factor using the optimized second-filter has made an ease of the access of the flicker-noise variance. we'll show a numerical formula of flicker variance in the third-order system of the PLL which is compared with that of 1/f noise variance in the second-order system of the PLL.
