ACCURATE MEASUREMENTS Of SPECTRAL DENSITY OF PHASE NOISE IN DEVICES
نویسندگان
چکیده
Systematic errors larger than 10 dB can occur in the measurement of the spectral density of phase unless considerable caution is exercised. Some potential problems due to the shape of the analyzer passband and the Fourier frequency dependence of mixers are discussed. Three measurement systems are analyzed to determine the conditions under which they may be used to make spectral density measurements with an accuracy of 0.2 dB.

Estimation of harmonic interference parameters of surface-NMR signal using an adaptive method and residual signal power
Surface nuclear magnetic resonance (surface-NMR) method is a well-known tool for determining the water-bearing layers and subsurface resistivity structure. Harmonic interference is an inevitable interference in surface-NMR measurements. Accurate estimation of harmonic interference parameters (i.e., fundamental frequency, phase and amplitude) leads to better retrieval of power-line harmonics and...
متن کاملA Novel Technique for Determination of the Onset of Alkane Induced Asphaltene Precipitation Using Accurate Density Measurements
Onset of asphaltene precipitation is the key parameter in dealing with asphaltene problems because it is the starting point of the asphaltene separation from the solution. In this study, a new technique is provided based on the experimental observations for the determination of the onset of asphaltene precipitation using accurate density measurements of the crude oils upon titration with precip...
متن کاملAm and pm noise analysis in quartz crystal oscillators: symbolic calculus approach
Increasing performance of quartz crystal oscillators as well as predictability requirements when developing the devices need accurate analysis of noise sources. Our work is devoted to understand how an oscillator reacts to additive noise of an element in the electronic circuit. Up to now, oscillator designers often refer to the well-known Leeson’s model to explain the shape of phase noise spect...
متن کاملLow Flicker-Noise GaN/AlGaN Heterostructure Field-Effect Transistors for Microwave Communications
We report a detailed investigation of flicker noise in novel GaN/AlGaN heterostructure field-effect transistors (GaN HFET). Low values of 1=f noise found in these devices (i.e., the Hooge parameter is on the order of 10 ) open up the possibility for applications in communication systems. We have examined the scaling of the noise spectral density with the device dimensions in order to optimize t...
متن کاملTotal ionizing dose effects on I-V and noise characteristics of MOS transistors in a 0.18 m CMOS Image Sensor process
This paper presents an investigation into total ionizing dose (TID) effects on I-V and noise characteristics of MOS transistors manufactured in a 0.18 μm CMOS Image Sensor (CIS) process. The CIS are intended for use in space science missions experiencing harsh radiation environments, such as ESA’s forthcoming JUICE mission. Devices were therefore irradiated to various TID levels up to 1 Mrad. F...
