Abstract :
Due to an intermodulation effect, the local oscillator phase noise may limit the medium term frequency stability of passive frequency standards. A new possibility of reducing this effect is presented. The mathematical approach is confirmed by a simulation of the frequency standard behavior. Optimal demodulation waveforms are given.<>
