All oscillators and signal sources exhibit
phase noise of some sort. This reference material is provided
to assist in understanding the sources of phase noise, how it is
characterized and the effects of phase noise on the performance of
communication systems.
If you have any
comments or questions, please let us know ( feedback@radiolab.com.au
) we would like to hear from you and will do our best to assist. This
material may be read sequentially using the NEXT link on each page.
