Analysis and Optimization of Grid Oscillators

چکیده
A method for assessing and optimizing the feedback level in a transistor-grid oscillator is presented. Based on the approximate large-signal S-parameters of the transistor, an equivalent circuit model for the grid is synthesized for maximum oscillator power. The resulting circuit serves as a convenient benchmark for determining the level of feedback for a given grid. Experimental results are presented for five different grid oscillators covering S through Ka bands. By varying the substrate thickness and metallization pattern of the grid, the feedback can be optimized in accordance with the theory. A grid with an asymmetric unit cell is shown to deliver almost 60% more effective radiated power (ERP) than a grid with a symmetric unit cell.

متن کاملAnalysis of Oscillation Amplitude and Phase Error in Multiphase LC Oscillators
Abstract This work proposes a novel method to find the phase error and oscillation amplitude in multiphase LC oscillators. A mathematical approach is used to find the relationship between every stage's output phase and its coupling factor. To much more general analysis, every stage assumed to have a different coupling factor. The mismatches in LC tanks are considered as the main source of pha...

Abstract: Due to the increasing use of microgrids, investigation of their stability is of special interest. One of the disadvantages of an inverter-based distribution unit is that at any given time, phase and frequency information at the point of common coupling (PCC) is required that affected the stability. The synchronization techniques include synchronous reference frame phase-locked loop (S...
