  • Modeling the Impact of Phase Noise on the Performance of Crystal-Free Radios Osama Khan, Brad Wheeler, Filip Maksimovic, David Burnett, Ali M
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON CIRCUITS AND SYSTEMS—II: EXPRESS BRIEFS, VOL. 64, NO. 7, JULY 2017 777 Modeling the Impact of Phase Noise on the Performance of Crystal-Free Radios Osama Khan, Brad Wheeler, Filip Maksimovic, David Burnett, Ali M. Niknejad, and Kris Pister Abstract—We propose a crystal-free radio receiver exploiting a free-running oscillator as a local oscillator (LO) while simulta- neously satisfying the 1% packet error rate (PER) specification of the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. This results in significant power savings for wireless communication in millimeter-scale microsys- tems targeting Internet of Things applications. A discrete time simulation method is presented that accurately captures the phase noise (PN) of a free-running oscillator used as an LO in a crystal- free radio receiver. This model is then used to quantify the impact of LO PN on the communication system performance of the IEEE 802.15.4 standard compliant receiver. It is found that the equiv- alent signal-to-noise ratio is limited to ∼8 dB for a 75-µW ring oscillator PN profile and to ∼10 dB for a 240-µW LC oscillator PN profile in an AWGN channel satisfying the standard’s 1% PER specification.

  • Advanced Bridge (Interferometric) Phase and Amplitude Noise Measurements
    Advanced bridge (interferometric) phase and amplitude noise measurements Enrico Rubiola∗ Vincent Giordano† Cite this article as: E. Rubiola, V. Giordano, “Advanced interferometric phase and amplitude noise measurements”, Review of Scientific Instruments vol. 73 no. 6 pp. 2445–2457, June 2002 Abstract The measurement of the close-to-the-carrier noise of two-port radiofre- quency and microwave devices is a relevant issue in time and frequency metrology and in some fields of electronics, physics and optics. While phase noise is the main concern, amplitude noise is often of interest. Presently the highest sensitivity is achieved with the interferometric method, that consists of the amplification and synchronous detection of the noise sidebands after suppressing the carrier by vector subtraction of an equal signal. A substantial progress in understanding the flicker noise mecha- nism of the interferometer results in new schemes that improve by 20–30 dB the sensitivity at low Fourier frequencies. These schemes, based on two or three nested interferometers and vector detection of noise, also feature closed-loop carrier suppression control, simplified calibration, and intrinsically high immunity to mechanical vibrations. The paper provides the complete theory and detailed design criteria, and reports on the implementation of a prototype working at the carrier frequency of 100 MHz. In real-time measurements, a background noise of −175 to −180 dB dBrad2/Hz has been obtained at f = 1 Hz off the carrier; the white noise floor is limited by the thermal energy kB T0 referred to the carrier power P0 and by the noise figure of an amplifier. Exploiting correlation and averaging in similar conditions, the sensitivity exceeds −185 dBrad2/Hz at f = 1 Hz; the white noise floor is limited by thermal uniformity rather than by the absolute temperature.

Such full-duplex radio noise effects on the self-interference cancellation capability of full- technology has many benefits over the conventional time- duplex direct-conversion radio transceivers. Closed-form solutions division duplexing (TDD) and frequency-division duplexing are derived for the power of the residual self-interference stemming from phase noise in two alternative cases of having either (FDD) based communications. When transmission and independent oscillators or the same oscillator at the transmitter reception happen at the same time and at the same frequency, and receiver chains of the full-duplex transceiver. The results show spectral efficiency is obviously increasing, and can in theory that phase noise has a severe effect on self-interference cancellation even be doubled compared to TDD and FDD, given that the in both of the considered cases, and that by using the common oscillator in upconversion and downconversion results in clearly SI problem can be solved [1]. Furthermore, from wireless lower residual self-interference levels. The results also show that it network perspective, the frequency planning gets simpler, is in general vital to use high quality oscillators in full-duplex since only a single frequency is needed and is shared between transceivers, or have some means for phase noise estimation and uplink and downlink.

The motivation is to implement RF circuits in a manner suiting advanced nanometer CMOS processes. To achieve that, information is encoded in the time-domain rather than voltage amplitude. This enables RF design to also benefit from CMOS process scaling. In this thesis an improved architecture of a digitally-intensive transmitter is proposed and validated experimentally. The techniques to lower oscillator phase noise and all-digital phase-locked loop (ADPLL) quantization noise are discussed and proved by both simulation and measurements. The impact of device sizing on 1/f 2 noise is analyzed and validated by measurements. Seven oscillators in 180-nm CMOS with the same LC-tank, operation frequency and power consumption but different core device width are compared.

  • Oscillator Phase Noise and Sampling Clock Jitter
    OSCILLATOR PHASE NOISE AND SAMPLING CLOCK JITTER RETHNAKARAN PULIKKOONATTU ABSTRACT. This technical note presents and overview of oscillator phase noise and its characteristics, which are paramount to the understanding of digital receiver and modems. Oscillators used in practical systems deviate from ideal spectral characteristics. Due to this, there arise unpleasant performance issues. A/D and D/A converters used in digital receivers use sampling clocks (for sampling or sample and hold) which are derived from sinusoidal oscillators. Phase noise present in the source oscillator could translate to jitter in clock waveform. There is an established relationship between the mean square jitter and phase noise spectrum. The mathematical formula to compute the rms phase jitter from a given oscillator phase noise spectrum is derived and furnished with examples. The result obtained thus matches with those obtained using a web based tool [1] Date: 2007 June 12. Key words and phrases. Phase noise, Oscillator phase noise, clock jitter. ST Microelectronics, (Genesis Microchip) Bangalore, India (www.st.com). 1 2 RETHNAKARAN PULIKKOONATTU 1. PHASE NOISE Ideal sinusoidal oscillators of frequency f0 have a mathematically strict spectrum in the form of delta functions, centered at −f0 and f0. However, practical oscillators sel- dom exhibit this kind of clean spectrum. They tend to have spreading of spectral energy around the carrier frequency, as shown in Figure-1 . The spreading or spillage of energy to neighbouring points around f0 can cause unwanted behaviour at both transmitter and re- ceiver mixers. This spillage of spectral energy behave like unwanted phase modulation and is called phase noise. Besides mixers, the sampling clock used to trigger A/D and DAC are also influenced because the clocks used there are derived from non-ideal sinusoidal oscillators, with phase noise.

  • Design, Modeling and Noise Measurement of Oscillators Using a Large Signal Network Analyzer
    DESIGN, MODELING AND NOISE MEASUREMENT OF OSCILLATORS USING A LARGE SIGNAL NETWORK ANALYZER DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Inwon Suh, M.S.E.E. Graduate Program in Electrical and Computer Engineering The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Prof. Patrick Roblin, Adviser Prof. Steven B. Bibyk Prof. Roberto Rojas-Teran Prof. James Peck °c Copyright by Inwon Suh 2011 ABSTRACT Oscillators play a crucial role in wireless communication systems since they are used together with mixers for frequency translation. To design discrete oscillators in a more efficient way in terms of output power, a multi-harmonic real-time open-loop active load- pull technique was developed and used to find the optimal fundamental and harmonic load impedances. Multi-harmonic loaded load circuits were then designed and implemented to approach the optimal multi-harmonic load impedances and realize a stand-alone oscillator. Then, a new behavioral modeling technique based on power dependent Volterra series was developed to model negative-resistance oscillators. The derived behavioral model pre- dicts the harmonic load-pull behaviors and the output power characteristics of oscillators and assists with the oscillator design. The noise characteristic of oscillator is also of great importance in communication cir- cuits. A new generalized 1/f Kurokawa noise analysis applicable to both low and high Q oscillators is proposed for 1/f phase and amplitude noise. A theoretical correspon- dence between the new generalized Kurokawa theory and the impulse sensitivity function and the perturbation projection vector analyses is also derived.
