  • Abstract
    The prediction of oscillator noise has been one of the more difficult problems in circuit analysis. A new system for measuring modulation (amplitude or phase) transfer and upconversion is presented which allows insight into the causes of oscillator noise. This system can measure modulation at less than -50dbc and accurately predict the oscillator noise spectrum.
