Abstract :
This paper will report on theoretical and experimental investigations of the noise behavior of frequency multipliers using nonlinear solid-state elements, particularly step-recovery diodes. Results show the dependence of strong variations of output amplitude noise and the output phase noise on the parameters of the passive filter circuit connected to the diode.
