Abstract

The effect of the phase noise of the local oscillator on the performance of a correlation receiver performance is studied in this paper. The phase noise of LO is modeled using a nonlinear equation, which describes the timing jitter effect of the LO. Simulations has been done for different error levels of the amplitude of the correlation coefficients, in order to qualify the requirements on the LO phase noise level.
