The phase noise characteristics of the phase-locked loop frequency synthesizer were predicted based on the analysis for phase noise contribution of noise sources. The proposed phase noise model in this paper more accurately predicts the phase noise spectrum of frequency synthesizer. To accurately model the phase noise contribution of noise sources in frequency synthesizer, the phase noise sources were analyzed via modeling of the frequency divider and phase noise components using Leeson model for reference signal source and VCO. The phase noise transfer functions to VCO from noise sources were analyzed by superposition theory and linear operation of phase-locked loop. To evaluate the phase noise prediction model, the frequency synthesizers were fabricated and were evaluated by measured data and prediction data.

In this paper, we designed 2303.15MHz Sequency synthesizer for the purpose of the phase noise prediction. For the modeling of phase noise Oersted in the designed system through inooducing the noise-modeling method suggested by Lascari we analyzied a variation of phase noise as according as that of offest frequency. Especially, for the third-order system of the PLL among some kinds of phase noise generated from VCO we analyzed the aspect of 1/f-noise appearing troubles in the low frequency band. Since it is difficult to analyze mathematically 1/f-noise in the third-order system of the PLL, introducing the concept of pseudo-damping factor has made an ease of the access of the 1/f-noise variance. we showed a numerical formula of 1/f-noise 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

This article investigates the mechanism of electronic signal phase noise degradation induced by laser phase noise in optical links comprising optical resonators. Through theoretical derivation, we find that the phase noise of the output electronic signal has the same spectral shape of optical intensity noise as the output of the optical resonator. We propose that the optical resonator transfers laser phase noise to light intensity fluctuation and then the intensity fluctuation is converted to electric phase noise through AM-PM conversion mechanism in the photodiode. An optical link comprising a Fabry-Perot resonator was constructed to verify the proposed mechanism. The experimental results agree with our theoretical prediction verifying that the supposition is correct.

Recently, there has been a growing interest in the environmental conservation. Accordingly, problems related to the audible noise of transformers have became more frequent. Therefore, it is urgent to find a fundamental solution about the audible noises in the substations. This paper described a sort of fundamental solution to solve the noise problem. As a fundamental solution, we suggested the proper audible noise level of transformers through noise prediction in the substation construction phase. And we applied the low noise transformers which have the predicted noise level. As the result, we are able to satisfy the noise regulation through measuring 43.6dBA at the boundary of substation. It is confirmed that the average error rate of prediction was within 3 percent.

In this paper, we proposed a phase noise model of a frequency synthesizer for a radar system. Especially, it was proposed a phase noise model in a DAS(Direct Analog Synthesizer) and a frequency up converter system using Leeson's model. The proposed phase noise model was derived from the measurement data of model 1 and evaluated by adapting to model 2 and model 3 frequency synthesizers. The prediction phase noise by modeling was totally matched to the measured data and the effective analysis of the phase noise was done in a frequency synthesizer and a frequency converter of radar system.

Based on the alternating series expansion of error probability function due to phase noise in PSK systems, the performance evaluations for Tikhonov and Gaussian probability density functions were performed in this paper. The range of the signal-to-noise ratio of recovered carrier signal which provides the same dependency between the error performances by Tikhonov function and Gaussian function was analyzed via loss evaluation due to phase noise. The phase noise with 1/f$^2$ characteristic was generated based on the relationship of the phase noise spectral density and the modulation index for frequency modulation signal. Using the generated phase noise as the input signal for digital satellite communication receiver, the performance losses due to the phase noise were measured and evaluated with the analyzed performance characteristics.

The refrigerant after the expansion valve interchanges the heat at the evaporator. At this moment, the state of gas and liquid becomes two-phase flow and causes irregular noise. In order to avoid the noise, the two-phase flow pattern should be predicted. In this paper, the procedure to predict the two-phase flow patterns such as churn flow and annular flow was suggested using the CFD software. The experiments using refrigerant-supplying equipment was carried out and the noise levels according to the flow pattern were measured. The flow patterns predicted by this procedure showed good agreement with those by experiments. The churn flow is noisier than annular flow pattern.

We can notice that the variance of third-order system more occurs (or the variance of second-order system in connection with noise bandwidth and variance factor of second-order and third-order system.

Prediction methods for cavitation noise are presented. At first, direct numerical simulation of cavitating flow noise has been performed, and acoustic analogy equation based on the cavitation noise modeling is derived. For the direct numerical simulation, a density based homogenous equilibrium model is employed to simulate cavitating two-phase flow and the governing equations are solved with high-order numerical schemes to resolve cavitation noise. The compressible Navier-Stokes equations for mixture fluids are discretized with a sixth-order central compact scheme, and the steep gradient of flow variables and supersonic regions are treated with the selective spatial filtering technique. The direct simulation of cavitating flow noise is performed for a 2D circular cylinder at cavitation number 0.7 and 1. The far-field noise is also predicted with the derived analogy equation. Noise spectrum predicted with the equation is well compared with the result of direct numerical simulation and also agree well with the theory.
