This paper newly analyzes the effect of the phase noise in the frequency synthesizer on the performance of SFH/M-NCFSK system by standard frequency deviation(equation omitted) when noncoherent FSK demodulation of the square-law detector is considered. We derive the SER in the SFH system and analyze the effect of phase noise on the SFH/M-NCFSK system performance according to the hopping frequency spacing (1/T$\_$h/) and the variation of the standard frequency deviation (equation omitted). The required SNR is about 13.4 dB to meet Ps=10$\^$-3/ when the standard frequency deviation is about 4.0 Hz and the hopping frequency spacing (1/T$\_$h/) in the SFH/2-NCFSK system is 30. So, there is about 2.4 dB power penalty than the phase noise-free system. If the hopping frequency spacing 1/T$\_$h/ is under 30, the error floor may happen and SER considerably grows up. We show that the analytic results closely match with the simulation results.
