- Title
A Low Noise Oscillator Based on a Conventional Dielectric Resonator.

- Abstract
This article describes a 4 GHz ultra low noise oscillator with a frequency-locked loop (FLL) that incorporates a frequency detector (FD) employing a conventional dielectric resonator having an unloaded quality factor (Q) of 8000. Its single sideband (SSB) phase noise spectral density of-153 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz frequency offset from the carrier is superior to the best traditional crystal oscillators scaled to the same output frequency. The oscillator was built using low-cost, commercially available off-the-shelf parts.
