摘要
Transposed flicker noise removal is demonstrated in a 7.6GHz microwave oscillator for offsets greater that 10kHz. This is achieved by using a GaAs based feedforward power amplifier as the oscillation sustaining stage. 20dB noise suppression is demonstrated at 12.5kHz offset when the error correcting amplifier is switched on. The phase noise rolls-off at (1/DeltaF)(2) for offsets greater than 10kHz and is therefore set by the thermal noise to within 0-2dB of the theoretical minimum.
