  • Abstract
    Analytical relationships are derived for the ratio of the intrinsic AM to FM noise, and for the intrinsic AM noise of IMPATT diode oscillators. The theory is confirmed experimentally for a silicon n+-p diode and an n-gallium-arsenide Schottky barrier diode operating at low and intermediate signal levels.
