Abstract

The closed-form autocorrelation function of the phase jitter accumulation process in presence of 1/f³ and 1/f² shape noises is derived from the single-sideband (SSB) phase noise (PN) measurements. Exploiting the calculated autocorrelation function, a lower bound for the minimum achievable mean square error (MSE) of the PN prediction in a typical single-input single-output communication system is computed. This bound links the performance of a communication system suffering from the PN directly to the SSB PN measurements.
