A theoretical and experimental study of the noise behavior of subharmonically injection locked local oscillatorsA method for the noise characterization of optically controlled subharmonically injection-locked oscillators is presented. Based on a nonlinear model of synchronized oscillators, this method is used to formulate a general expression for phase noise calculation, so that FM noise degradation of a subharmonically synchronized LO at large-signal levels can be predicted easily and accurately. Experimental results of FM noise measurement of an oscillator confirmed the accuracy of the analysis.
