چکیده
The paper proposes a methodology for the determination of the locking range of an Injection-Locked Frequency Divider. The technique involves the use of the Warped Multi-time scale model and is applicable to oscillators in general. The ability to determine, in an efficient manner, the locking ranges of Injection Locked Frequency Dividers is of great importance to design engineers as ILFDs are suitable for lower-power wireless applications.
