Oscillator phase noise: a tutorial

Oscillator Modeling and Phase Noise

Oscillator Modeling and Phase Noise by Brian Nguyen Limketkai Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering-Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences University of California, Berkeley Professor Robert W. Brodersen, Chair Using a dynamical systems perspective, we develop a method to calculate phase noise in oscillators based on a particle diffusion model. Starting from the basic nonlinear equations of...

Multiplicative Noise in Non-equilibrium Phase Transitions: A tutorial

Stochastic phenomena in which the noise amplitude is proportional to the fluctuating variable itself, usually called multiplicative noise, appear ubiquitously in physics, biology, economy and social sciences. The properties of spatially extended systems with this type of stochasticity, paying special attention to the non-equilibrium phase transitions these systems may exhibit, are reviewed here...

Vulnerability to Noise of a Phase-locked Oscillator Array

The eeect of noise on the in-phase attractor of a set of N globally coupled oscillators is studied; these discrete-time maps are associated with the continuous-time equations of motion for a series array of Josephson junction oscillators. We investigate both geometrical properties of the basin of attraction in the large N limit, and the implications of this geometry on the average time for the ...
