Low Cost Production Phase Noise Measurements on Microwave and Millimeter Wave Frequency Sources
H. McPherson, Spectral Line System Ltd.
Automated RF and Microwave Measurement Society (ARMMS) Conference, Corby, England, UK, November, 2009.
Abstract:
This paper describes a low cost solution which is particularly suitable for phase noise measurements on microwave and millimetre wave sources, namely the Two-Source IF Discriminator Method.
