Theory and Practical Considerations for Measuring Phase Noise Better Than –165 dBc/Hz: Part I

Phase noise requirements have a major influence on the design of a communication system because they impact the local oscillator design and hence the cost of the radio. Since the number of wireless subscribers and thus, RF interference, continues to in...
Phase noise is a frequency domain measure of the short-term stability of an oscillator. It is measured and specified as noise power, relative to carrier power, in a one Hz bandwidth at a given frequency offset. Typically, for a communication system oscillator, the phase noise requirement is specified for...
