Abstract :
The use of an injection-locked-oscillator (ILO) as a microwave amplifier of minimum-shift-keying type of digitally modulated signal has been described. A large signal model of the ILO which identifies the key circuit parameters has been derived. Both the theoretical and experimental results in the form of the spectral spreading effect of a 6 GHz IMPATT microstrip ILO on the filtered 5 M bits/sec MSK signal have been presented. These results have been obtained for various values of the gain and the frequency offset.
