Title :
Circuit Design for Minimizing the FM Noise of a CW Gunn Oscillator
Abstract :
The FM noise spectrum of a Gunn diode operated in any microwave circuit may be calculated from three noise parameters and the results of simple microwave measurements. These three noise parameters, one describing thermal noise properties and two describing flicker noise properties are assigned to each diode as a result of noise measurements made in a standard test circuit.
