Abstract :
A method is proposed to evaluate the acquisition statistics of phase-locked loops in the frequency search mode of operation. The frequency sweep rate limit and the relevant statistical characteristics of a high-gain second-order phase-locked loop are given. Loop performance is optimised with respect to minimum acquisition time, and a suboptimum loop is reported
